Description

The RAKwireless Link.ONE is a professional-grade LoRaWAN node module engineered for developers and system integrators requiring regional compliance and deployment flexibility. Its core is the ultra-low-power Nordic Semiconductor nRF52840 microcontroller, which combines a capable 64 MHz Cortex-M4F processor with integrated Bluetooth 5.0, providing a dual-radio architecture for both long-range LoRaWAN communication and local device management.

Optimized for the 800MHz spectrum, this module is pre-configured for the EU868, RU864, and IN865 regional parameters, making it suitable for IoT networks across Europe, Russia, and India. The absence of a unified enclosure is a deliberate design choice, allowing the board to be directly embedded into custom casings, industrial housings, or integrated as a system-on-module (SoM) within larger PCB assemblies, significantly reducing final product footprint.

Key Features

  • Regional LoRaWAN compliance for EU868, RU864, and IN865 frequency plans ensures legal operation and optimal performance.
  • Dual wireless connectivity via Semtech LoRa transceiver and Nordic Semiconductor BLE 5.0 enables hybrid network topologies.
  • Low-power ARM Cortex-M4F core with floating-point unit accelerates sensor data processing and encryption algorithms.
  • Open hardware design facilitates direct soldering and integration into final products, minimizing BOM cost.
  • Comprehensive development support via Arduino IDE, PlatformIO, and the nRF5 SDK for rapid firmware prototyping.
  • Robust RF front-end design ensures reliable communication links in urban and rural environments.

Applications

  • Smart city infrastructure for parking, waste management, and environmental monitoring.
  • Precision agriculture for soil moisture, weather station, and livestock tracking networks.
  • Industrial IoT (IIoT) for remote telemetry, tank level monitoring, and equipment condition monitoring.
  • Asset tracking and logistics across wide geographic areas using LoRaWAN network coverage.
  • Building automation for energy metering, HVAC control, and occupancy sensing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I program the RAKwireless Link.ONE module?

The module can be programmed using the Arduino IDE with the RAKwireless nRF52 BSP or PlatformIO. You can also use the native nRF5 SDK and Segger Embedded Studio for lower-level development. Connect via the SWD debug header using a Segger or ST-Link programmer to flash your compiled firmware onto the 1MB internal flash memory.

What is the default LoRaWAN region configuration, and how do I change it?

The module is pre-configured for one of the 800MHz bands (EU868, RU864, or IN865) as specified. To change the region or LoRaWAN parameters, you must modify the firmware. This typically involves editing the 'region' define in the LoRaMac-node stack configuration files (e.g., Commissioning.h) and recompiling your application code for the desired frequency plan and channel masks.

Can I use the integrated Bluetooth simultaneously with LoRaWAN?

Yes, the Nordic Semiconductor nRF52840 SoC supports concurrent operation of its BLE 5.0 radio and the external Semtech LoRa transceiver. This allows you to use BLE for local configuration, real-time sensor data readout, or as a commissioning tool for LoRaWAN credentials, while the main application uses LoRaWAN for long-range uplink communication to the network server.

What power supply is required, and what is the typical current consumption?

The module typically operates at 3.3V. Current consumption varies drastically with mode: active LoRa transmission can peak over 100mA, while deep sleep with RAM retention on the nRF52840 can be as low as a few microamps. For battery operation, implement aggressive sleep schedules and use the nRF52840's built-in power management peripherals.
