Five networks in one small board;  the Micropython-programmable FiPy takes up the same footprint as our other boards. Featuring WiFi, Bluetooth, LoRa, Sigfox and dual LTE-M (CAT-M1 and NB-IoT), the FiPy gives access to global LPWAN networks.

Features :

  • Powerful CPU
  • Five networks: WiFi, BLE, cellular LTE-CAT M1/NB1, LoRa and Sigfox
  • 1KM WiFi range
  • MicroPython enabled
  • Fits in a standard breadboard (with headers)
  • Ultra-low power usage: a fraction compared to other connected microcontrollers
  • Espressif ESP32 SoC
  • Dual processor and WiFi radio system on chip
  • Networking processor handles the WiFi connectivity and the IPv6 stack
  • Main processor is entirely free to run the user application
  • An extra ULP-coprocessor that can monitor GPIOs, the ADC channels and control most of the internal peripherals during deep-sleep mode while only consuming 25uA
