Radio Frequency (RF) & Wireless Design

I have just added another very small form factor called the "Feather" Nordic Semiconductor nRF9160 Bleutooth Low Energy (BLE) PCB module which is based around the Adafruit "Feather" design :

BLE nRF9160 Feather Wireless PCB Module

This is a model of the "nRF9160 Feather" Wireless Module. The 'feather' boards were started from Adafruit and have evolved to other architectural modules. This one is based upon the Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Nordic Semiconductor nRF9160. This open-source module was created by Jared Wolff and his...

This is in addition to the "Thingy" small BLE project and nRF9160 evaluation module :

Nordic Semiconductor Thingy:91 Multi-sensor Bluetooth 5.0 to Cellular IoT Prototyping Platform

This is a model of the Nordic Semiconductor Thingy : 91 Multi-sensor Bluetooth 5.0 to Cellular IoT Prototyping Platform. It uses the Ignion (previously called Fractus) mXTEND Trio multi band antenna. https://ignion.io/product/trio-mxtend/ The Nordic website describes it the Thingy:91 best : "The ...

As well as the Nordic Semiconductor full development platform PCB :

Nordic Semiconductor nRF9160 SiP Prototyping Development Kit

This is a model of the Nordic Semiconductor nRF9160 SiP Prototyping Development Kit. "The nRF9160 DK is an affordable, pre-certifed single-board development kit for evaluation and development on the nRF9160 SiP for LTE-M, NB-IoT and GPS. It also includes an nRF52840 board controller that for exam...

Each form factor and functionality is useful for various purposes similar to the Raspberry Pi standard card and the slimmed down version called the Pico, which has a minimal size for reducing space when integration into a larger design is important.

I invite you to check all of them out and let me know which is your particular favorite.
