Based on the ASR650x series of chips, we have done a lot of migration and development, made it perfectly support Arduino®, can run the LoRaWAN protocol stably, and can easily connect lithium batteries and solar panels… This is the CubeCell series.
Cube — Means modular design and easy assembly;
Cell — Is the product positioning, as a unit of the IoT series, working like a cell.
ASR650X-Arduino open source project: https://github.com/HelTecAutomation/ASR650x-Arduino
- Support AT commands;
- Arduino-Compatible;
- 1.27 x 11 stamp edge design;
- Can be directly integrated into the application circuit, can work as a MCU master unit or LoRa transceiver.
- Arduino-Compatible;
- Very friendly for developers, only need a micro USB connct to a computer, users can begin LoRa IoT project develop;
- Full power management system, can connect with a solar panel directly;
- Easy to verify communication solutions.
- Arduino-Compatible;
- Replaceable sensor design;
- Available in a variety of sensor case;
- Alreay highly integrated, with a complete enclosure and protection measures that can be deployed directly into real-world applications.
- The developers of IoT applications are mostly software engineers. I am sure that no software engineer wants to waste life in the configuration registers, system clock, and then light up an LED… Arduino is developed based on C++. Developlers only need call the APIs, such as the familiar
Serial.begin (115200);
- Arduino is well known and simple enough, makes the IoT application development more easy;
- Thousands of Arduino library resources;
- Developlers can use Arduino® in Windows®, Mac OS®, Linux. But the traditional PSoC development platform only supports Windows® system;

The ASR650x series currently includes two chips: ASR6501 and ASR6502.
The series has already integrated the PSoC® 4000 series MCU (ARM® Cortex® M0+ Core) and SX1262 LoRa chips, which have great application significance! Can greatly reduce the circuit size and cost.
We believe that the key to LoRa node is low power consumption and solar energy. This will keep LoRa node system working for a long time.
Both the Dev-Board and the Capsule Sensor are reserved with a solar interface, which can directly connect to the solar panel of 5.5~7V. If the sun is directly exposed for more than 2 hours every day, the lithium battery can be used forever.
