Take your pick: Arduino, Beaglebone, Raspberry Pi, Launchpads, etc… I own a few of them, plus some less general-purpose ones. One of my favorites is mbed. It is quite easy and powerful. […]
I worked a bit on this project on the National Holiday of the 28th of October. I designed a simple PCB with through-hole parts. Here you can find the project files if you want to modify it with KiCAD: RFM92W If you just want to replicate it as is, here are the Gerbers I will have the PCB made soon […]

My EDA suite of choice is kicad once more. I made a footprint and schematic symbol for the modules. I’ll post here any progress…
