The RAK19009 is a compact WisBlock Mini Base Board designed for modular IoT node assembly, supporting one Core module and two Sensor modules via high-speed interconnectors. It requires a separate Power Board (sold separately) for flexible 3.3V power input from USB, battery, solar, or industrial DC sources.

Features

  • Ultra-compact 30 x 37 mm footprint for space-constrained IoT deployments.
  • Supports 1 WisBlock Core slot and 2 Sensor slots for modular, scalable system design.
  • Modular power architecture requires separate Power Board (e.g., RAK19012-RAK19017) for USB, battery, solar, or PoE input.
  • Industrial-grade build with high-speed interconnectors ensures reliable signal integrity in harsh environments.
  • Compatible with a wide range of low-power RAKwireless WisBlock Core MCUs for LoRaWAN, BLE, and sensor applications.

Description

The RAKwireless RAK19009 Mini Base Board is a foundational component of the WisBlock modular IoT system, engineered for rapid prototyping and scalable deployment of wireless sensor nodes. Its core innovation is the separation of the power supply, which is handled by an external, interchangeable Power Board, allowing developers to select the optimal power source—be it USB, Li-Ion battery, solar panel, Power over Ethernet (PoE), or industrial 5-24V DC—for their specific application without redesigning the base circuitry.

Built with industrial durability in mind, the board features high-speed board-to-board connectors that maintain signal integrity for I2C, UART, GPIO, and other digital interfaces between the Core module and attached sensors. The compact 30x37mm form factor is ideal for embedding into final products, while the standardized WisBlock ecosystem ensures seamless compatibility with dozens of certified sensor, core, and power modules for building everything from LoRaWAN environmental monitors to BLE asset trackers.

Key Features

  • Modular WisBlock architecture for plug-and-play IoT node assembly.
  • Externalized power supply design enables flexible power source selection (USB, battery, solar, PoE, DC).
  • High-speed, low-noise interconnectors provide robust communication between Core and Sensor modules.
  • Industrial-grade components and PCB construction ensure reliability in extended temperature ranges and demanding conditions.
  • Minimal footprint allows for integration into compact enclosures and end-products.
  • Pre-configured 3.3V power rail simplifies design and reduces external component count.
  • Standardized 40-pin connector for WisBlock Core modules and 2.54mm headers for boot mode and serial debug access.

Applications

  • Modular LoRaWAN/LoRa sensor nodes for environmental monitoring (temperature, humidity, air quality).
  • Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacon and asset tracking devices with sensor expansion.
  • Industrial IoT (IIoT) telemetry gateways with modular power and communication backhaul.
  • Smart agriculture sensor stations powered by solar or battery.
  • Prototyping and product development platform for custom wireless IoT solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What power source does the RAK19009 base board use?

The RAK19009 itself does not include a power supply. It requires a separate WisBlock Power Board (such as the RAK19012 for USB/battery/solar or RAK19017 for PoE) to be connected. This modular design provides 3.3V to the base board and its attached Core and Sensor modules, allowing you to choose the optimal power source (e.g., Li-Ion battery, solar panel, USB, or industrial DC) for your specific IoT deployment scenario without modifying the core board layout.

Which WisBlock Core modules are compatible with the RAK19009?

The RAK19009 is compatible with all WisBlock Core modules that use the standard 40-pin connector, including the RAK4631 (nRF52840 + SX1262 for BLE/LoRa), RAK3172 (STM32WLE5CC for LoRa), and RAK11300 (RP2040 + SX1262). You simply align the connector and press the Core module onto the base board. Ensure your firmware (built with Arduino IDE, PlatformIO, or RUI3) is configured for the specific Core's MCU and radio chipset to enable wireless communication and sensor data acquisition.

How do I program and debug the Core module on this base board?

Programming and serial debug output are accessed via the dedicated 2.54mm pitch headers on the RAK19009 labeled BOOT, RST, TX, and RX. Connect a USB-to-Serial adapter (like an FTDI board) to these pins, matching voltage levels (3.3V). For ESP32-based cores, you may need to hold the BOOT pin low during reset to enter flash mode. Use the Arduino IDE or PlatformIO with the appropriate RAKwireless board support package. The UART pins provide a console for AT commands or debug prints from your application firmware.
