Notecarriers are companion development boards designed to make it easy to prototype and deploy IoT solutions with the Notecard.

Notecarrier Pi is designed for drop-in development with a Raspberry Pi or compatible Single Board Computer. It includes a pre-soldered female 40-pin header connector for plugging directly into the Raspberry Pi, and a 40-pin connector on top for stacking other Pi “hats” and devices. It also includes two Qwiic I2C ports for attaching external peripherals.

Included is a flexible Molex 209142 antenna for use with either LTE or GPS. If you require a dual LTE/GPS antenna, we recommend adding on the flexible LTE+GPS antenna (or you may choose to use your own preferred antenna).

Notecarriers require a Notecard to function. The Notecarrier Pi Hat is compatible with all available Notecards. See the Notecards section for more details or get started with a Blues Starter Kit.

Key Notecarrier Pi Specs

  • Notecard M.2 Key E connector socket and mounting screw receptacle.
  • 2 Qwiic I2C ports for attaching external peripherals to your project.
  • Pre-soldered female 40-pin header connector for plugging directly into a Pi or another Pi hat.
  • Pre-soldered male 40-pin header connector for stacking additional Pi hats.
  • External Nano-SIM slot for use of an optional secondary SIM.

The Notecard is a device-to-cloud data pump that reduces the complexity of building connected solutions with secure, reliable cellular. As an embeddable system on module (SoM), the Notecard can be used with any microcontroller for both greenfield and retrofit projects using your own design, or one of our custom designed Notecarriers.

With just two lines of code you can send data to the cloud in minutes, with no complex device registration or provisioning required. With a powerful JSON-based API, you can program the Notecard over USB, or control it from your preferred microcontroller or single-board computer using one of our open-source firmware libraries. Connect from your preferred host to the Notecard using Serial or I2C.

The Notecard is designed to work with a cloud service for ingesting and processing device data. Notehub provides secure device connectivity, project and fleet management, and simple routing to 3rd party cloud services.

The Notecard is meant to be used with a Notecarrier. The Notecard Cellular is compatible with all available Notecarriers. See the Notecarriers section for more details or get started with a Blues Starter Kit.

The Notecard Cell+WiFI (MB) adds an LTE Cat 1 bis Notecard to complement our existing Notecard SKUs. This new, “Midband” Notecard provides a step-up in performance from 2G/3G, Cat-M, and NB-IoT without a big step-up in price.

The Notecard is a device-to-cloud data pump that reduces the complexity of building connected solutions with secure, reliable cellular and Wi-Fi. As an embeddable system on module (SoM), the Notecard can be used with any microcontroller for both greenfield and retrofit projects using your own design, or one of our custom designed Notecarriers.

The Notecard Cell+WiFi allows for dynamic fallback from Wi-Fi to cellular and indoor location tracking via Wi-Fi Triangulation.

With just two lines of code you can send data to the cloud in minutes, with no complex device registration or provisioning required. With a powerful JSON-based API, you can program the Notecard over USB, or control it from your preferred microcontroller or single-board computer using one of our open-source firmware libraries.

Introducing the new Notecard for LoRa (2.1). Same ease of use. Same m.2 connector. 100% more castellated edges—enabling product builders to embed the Notecard directly onto a PCB for volume production.

The Notecard is a device-to-cloud data pump that reduces the complexity of building connected solutions with LoRa/LoRaWAN. As an embeddable system on module (SoM), the Notecard can be used with any microcontroller for both greenfield and retrofit projects using your own design, or one of our custom designed Notecarriers.

The Notecard for LoRa is a lower-cost version of the cellular-based Notecards for LoRa only, and is API-compatible with the cellular- and WiFi-based Notecards (with some exceptions). Notecard for LoRa now has the option of being on a single-sided PCB and includes castellated edges. This enables developers to use the Notecard in any Notecarrier for a POC or Prototype, and embed the module directly into a commercial product for easy volume production. The Notecard for LoRa supports The Things Network gateways. Included is a flexible Molex 211140 antenna that supports both 868 MHz (Europe) and 915 MHz (United States) frequencies.

With just two lines of code you can send data to the cloud in minutes, no complex device registration or provisioning required. With a powerful JSON-based API, you can program the Notecard over USB, or control it from your preferred microcontroller or single-board computer using one of our open-source firmware libraries. Connect from your preferred host to the Notecard using Serial or I2C.

The Notecard is designed to work with a cloud service for ingesting and processing device data. Notehub provides secure device connectivity, project and fleet management, and simple routing to 3rd party cloud services.
