Description

Adafruit LoRa Radio FeatherWing - RFM95W 900 MHz

These add-ons for any Feather board will let oyu integrate packetized radio (with the RFM69 radio) or LoRa radio (with the RFM9x's). These radios are good options for kilometer-range radio, and paired with one of our WiFi, cellular or Bluetooth Feathers, will let you bridge from 433/900 MHz to the internet or your mobile device.

These radio modules come in four variants (two modulation types and two frequencies) The RFM69's are the easiest to work with, & are well known and understood. The LoRa radios are exciting, longer-range and more powerful, but also more expensive.

RFM69 @ 433 MHz - Basic packetized FSK/GFSK/MSK/GMSK/OOK radio at 433 MHz for use in Europe ITU 1 license-free ISM, or for amateur use with restrictions (check your local amateur regulations!)
RFM69 @ 900 MHz - Basic packetized FSK/GFSK/MSK/GMSK/OOK radio at 868 or 915 MHz for use in Americas ITU 2 license-free ISM, or for amateur use with restrictions (check your amateur regulations!)
RFM98 @ 433 MHz - LoRa capable radio at 433 MHz for use in Europe ITU 1 license-free ISM, or for amateur use with restrictions (check your local amateur regulations!)
RFM95 @ 900 MHz - LoRa capable radio at 868 or 915 MHz for use in Americas ITU 2 license-free ISM, or for amateur use with restrictions (check your local amateur regulations!)

NOTE: Currently tested to work with the Feather ESP8266, Teensy 3 Feather, Feather 32u4, & Feather MO series. Some wiring is required to configure the FeatherWing for the chipset you plan to use.
