Description
The Maduino Lora Radio mainboard combines the ATmega328 microcontroller with a 433MHz LoRa module. It is designed for ultra-long range spread spectrum communication with high interference immunity and minimal current consumption. The board uses the Arduino Pro Mini 3.3V 8MHz bootloader and a CP2104 USB to serial converter for uploading code via the Arduino IDE.
