Arduino Low Power - Creating a LoRa IoT Node That Runs off Batteries

By ShawnHymel

We build on our previous LoRa IoT weather sensor to run for a year on 2x AAA batteries. We'll look at the AVR ATmega328p datasheet to determine which registers we need to use to put the microcontroller to sleep, and we'll calculate how long we need to sleep before sampling the sensor again.

Qwiic Shield for Arduino & Photon Hookup Guide

By SparkFun Electronics

The Qwiic Shield (for Arduino or Particle Photon) is the first step in getting acquainted with SparkFun’s Qwiic connect ecosystem. It connects the I2C bus (GND, 3.3V, SDA, and SCL) on your Arduino or Photon board to a series of SparkFun Qwiic connectors.
