NB-IoT is the new shining constellation on the LPWAN sky. It stars are called low energy consumption, low price, small sized and easy to use for any hardware developer. In our workshop, we will examine the open HW design called akorIoT Nano (credit card sized including embedded PCB antenna), GNSS module, and 7 sensors plus 107 off the shelf further PCB sensors. To keep it simple we will use the well know Arduino SDK to read the sensors and to upload the data to the cloud or to send an SMS. In parallel, we will show how to use an STM32 Nucleo 32 with free of charge GNU- C-Compiler. Furthermore, we will help with HW hint and tips based our long and extensive experience in IoT/M2M PCB layout on how to avoid trouble from ESD and spurious emissions. You can quickly apply the lessons learned to your own wireless IoT application to launch your NB-IoT device.

Agenda of the workshop:

  • NB-IoT basics and difference to GSM
  • Power on of the akorIoT Nano and starting the SDK
  • “Hello World”
  • Reading the sensor data with print to USB port (screen/beamer)
  • Transmitting the data to the cloud and SMS
  • Sharing of HW experience and hints on some common traps
  • Q&A / discussion with the participants
