{"title":"Particle Photon","handle":"particle-photon","url":"/products/particle-photon","description":"The Particle Photon is a compact WiFi development board for building connected Internet of Things (IoT) projects and products. Powered by a Broadcom BCM43362 WiFi chip and an STM32F205 ARM Cortex M3 microcontroller running at 120 MHz, it offers serious processing power in a breadboard-friendly form factor.\n\nThe Photon integrates with the Particle cloud platform, allowing you to write firmware in a web or local IDE, deploy updates over the air, and build companion web and mobile apps using Particle's SDKs. Its open-source design and FreeRTOS real-time operating system make it suitable for both prototyping and production.\n\nKey Features\n\n\n802.11 b/g/n WiFi – Broadcom BCM43362 wireless chip\n\n120 MHz ARM Cortex M3 – STM32F205 microcontroller\n\n1 MB Flash, 128 KB RAM – Ample memory for IoT applications\n\n18 Mixed-Signal GPIO – Digital, analogue, and advanced peripherals\n\nCloud Connected – Over-the-air firmware updates via Particle platform\n\nFreeRTOS – Real-time operating system\n\nSoft AP Setup – Easy WiFi configuration without additional hardware\n\nRGB Status LED – On-board indicator with external drive capability\n\nOpen Source Design – Hardware design files available\n\nCertified – FCC, CE, and IC certified\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nIoT prototyping and connected product development\nHome automation and remote monitoring\nSensor networks and data collection\nWeb-connected devices and dashboards\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× Particle Photon\n\n\nResources\n\nPhoton Datasheet\n\n\n\nNote: Breadboard and USB cable are not included.\n","vendor":"DFRobot","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":12664,"title":"Default Title","sku":"DF-DFR0373","price":47.7,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":4,"option1":"Default Title"}],"documents":[{"title":"Supplier page — dfrobot.com","type":"supplier_description","type_label":"Supplier Description","url":"https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDRSMBSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--c27bc9f32e2ee6e208fa4f94962e6b35d1c382de/particle-photon-dfrobot-com-2026-05-13.pdf","link":false,"file_extension":"PDF","file_size":625965,"description":"Snapshot of https://www.dfrobot.com/product-1324.html (captured 13 May 2026)"}]}
