Arduino MKR NB 1500 Development Board
Arduino MKR NB 1500 is an Internet of Things (IoT) development board with wireless connectivity based on narrowband (NB) IoT standards. NB-IoT communications technology uses existing LTE cellular networks and delivers significantly faster communications than alternative IoT networks such as LoRa and Sigfox while having a low impact on battery consumption. In addition, compared to typical GSM or 3G cellular connectivity, wake-up times and connections are much faster, enabling significant power savings.
The MKR NB 1500 is powered by a Microchip Technology SAMD21 Cortex-M0 32-bit low-power ARM MCU and features the Arduino MKR footprint, ensuring that it is fully compatible with the Arduino Uno, Mega, and existing MKR boards. The MKR NB 1500 offers a wide range of interfaces, including I2S, I2C, UART, and SPI. The Board operates at 3.3V and offers 22 digital I/Os, 12 PWM outputs, and seven analog inputs.
The MKR NB 1500 is ideal for applications in remote areas with no internet connection or power available, such as on-field monitoring systems.
