Chapter 4 Add a LoRa Radio to a Raspberry Pi Zero
A recent phenomenon in the Internet of Things area is the proliferation of new, long-reaching radio modules, in particular LoRa radios that can transmit data more than 10km in the open ISM radio bands (434 and 912MHz in the United States, 868MHz elsewhere). Also, the $10 Raspberry Pi Zero is a great option when you need to embed more computing power than a microcontroller in a project. In this chapter we will use surface-mount parts to design an EAGLE library for a LoRa radio module, and then connect it to a Raspberry Pi Zero (see Table 4-1).
