{"title":"ARDUINO MKR NB 1500","handle":"arduino-mkr-nb-1500","url":"/products/arduino-mkr-nb-1500","description":"The Arduino MKR NB 1500 is an IoT development board with NB-IoT (Narrowband IoT) cellular connectivity. It uses existing LTE networks to provide low-power wireless communication — faster than LoRa or Sigfox, with quicker wake-up and connection times than traditional GSM/3G, resulting in significant power savings for battery-operated deployments.\n\nBuilt around the SAMD21 Cortex-M0+ 32-bit MCU with a u-blox SARA-R410M modem and an ECC508 crypto chip for secure communication, the MKR NB 1500 is well suited for remote monitoring and IoT applications where Wi-Fi isn't available.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nNB-IoT Connectivity – Low-power cellular communication over LTE networks\n\nSAMD21 Cortex-M0+ MCU – 32-bit, low-power ARM processor\n\nu-blox SARA-R410M Modem – NB-IoT/LTE-M cellular module\n\nECC508 Crypto Chip – Hardware-based security for encrypted communication\n\nMKR Form Factor – Compatible with Arduino MKR shields and accessories\n\nMicro SIM Slot – Standard micro SIM card support\n\nUFL Antenna Connector – External antenna for cellular connectivity\n\n\nSpecifications\n\n\nMCU – Microchip SAMD21 Cortex-M0+ (32-bit)\n\nModem – u-blox SARA-R410M-02B\n\nSecurity – ECC508 crypto chip\n\nOperating Voltage – 3.3V\n\nDigital I/O – 22 (12 PWM)\n\nAnalogue Inputs – 7\n\nInterfaces – I2C, I2S, UART, SPI\n\nAntenna Connector – Micro UFL\n\nSIM Type – Micro SIM\n\nDimensions – 67.64 × 25 mm (2.66 × 0.98″)\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nRemote field monitoring and environmental sensing\nSmart parking and urban infrastructure\nSecurity and alarm systems\nBattery-powered IoT deployments without Wi-Fi\n\n\n\nWarning: Do not power the board with more than 3.3V.
