LoRa modulation delivers significantly greater range than conventional packet radio — over 2 km line-of-sight with default settings, and up to 20 km with optimised configurations and directional antennas.\n\nLoRa is ideal for low-power, low-data-rate applications where range matters more than bandwidth. It outperforms 2.4 GHz technologies like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and ZigBee in range while maintaining very low sleep current consumption.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nATSAMD21G18 Processor – ARM Cortex M0+ running at 48 MHz, 3.3V logic\n\n256 KB Flash + 32 KB RAM – 8× more flash and 16× more RAM than ATmega328/32u4\n\nRFM96 LoRa 433 MHz Radio – SX1276-based LoRa transceiver with SPI interface\n\n+5 to +20 dBm Output – Up to 100 mW transmit power, selectable in software\n\n2+ km Range – Line-of-sight with default settings; up to 20 km with optimisation\n\nUltra-Low Power – ~300 µA full sleep, ~120 mA peak transmit (+20 dBm), ~40 mA active listening\n\nNative USB – Built-in USB-to-Serial for programming and debugging, no FTDI chip needed\n\n20 GPIO Pins – Hardware Serial, I2C, and SPI; 8× PWM, 10× analogue inputs, 1× analogue output\n\nLiPo Battery Support – JST connector with built-in 100 mA charger, battery voltage monitoring via analogue pin\n\nCompact Design – 51 mm × 23 mm × 8 mm, weighing 5.8 g\n\n\nAlso Available\n\n\nFeather M0 RFM95 LoRa 900 MHz – Same LoRa radio at 868/915 MHz\n\nFeather M0 RFM69HCW 433 MHz – Packet radio (shorter range, higher data rate)\n\nFeather M0 RFM69HCW 868/915 MHz – Packet radio\n\nFeather M0 Express – CircuitPython with 2 MB flash\n\nFeather M0 Basic Proto – Prototyping area\n\nFeather M0 Adalogger – MicroSD data logging\n\nFeather M0 Bluefruit LE – Bluetooth Low Energy\n\nFeather M0 WiFi – ATWINC1500 Wi-Fi\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nLong-range wireless sensor networks\nRemote environmental monitoring\nBattery-powered IoT nodes requiring kilometre-scale range\nLow-power telemetry and tracking\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× Feather M0 RFM96 LoRa 433 MHz\n1× Header pin set\n\n\n\nNote: A wire antenna must be soldered to the board (any solid or stranded core wire will work). LiPo battery and USB cable sold separately.\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":11727,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-3179","price":68.19,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":50,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
