Summary

HTCC-AB01 (V2) belongs to Cubecell (TM) Series made by the Heltec team, mainly for LoRa/LoRaWAN node applications.

HTCC-AB01 (V2) is based on ASR6052, the chip is already integrated with the PSoC® 4000 series MCU (ARM® Cortex® M0+ Core) and SX1262. We have done a lot of migration and development, made it perfectly support Arduino®, can run the LoRaWAN protocol stably, and can easily connect lithium batteries and solar panels.

HTCC-AB01 (V2) is a Dev-Board. Which is an upgraded version of HTCC-AB01, and can pin-to-pin placement with the previous version.

Compared to AB01 Dev-board , V2 has made the following upgrades:

FAQ

LoRa is a wireless technology utilizing radio modulation generated by Semtech LoRa transceivers.

LoRa® is a wireless modulation technique that uses Chirp Spread Spectrum (CSS) technology. CSS encodes information using wideband linear frequency modulated chirp pulses. LoRa® can operate on the following sub-gigahertz ISM (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical) bands without requiring a license: 433 MHz, 868 MHz, and 915 MHz. These bands are reserved internationally for industrial, scientific, and medical uses.

If you need to add LoRa connectivity to your projects, Arduino® has got you covered with a range of boards, addons, and libraries.

LoRa can transmit up to 3 miles (5 kilometers) in urban areas and over 10 miles (15 kilometers) in rural areas with line of sight.

LoRa technology has become the go-to solution for connecting IoT devices due to its wide acceptance. It offers the flexibility of long-range connectivity and low-power consumption, making it suitable for various fields like industrial IoT (IIoT), smart environment monitoring, smart agriculture, smart homes and cities, smart utilities and metering, and smart supply chain and logistics. Its low-power features make it perfect for battery-operated sensors and low-power applications.
