WdKA RIoT Arduino Shield

WdKA RIoT Arduino Shield

The WDKA Riot Shield is a simple Arduino shield with a Microchip RN2483 LoRa transceiver module. The shield has inputs for 2 analog resistance based sensors like an RTDs (PTC/NTC) or LDRs sensors and the output of a LittleBit module(s). In order to activate one or more sensor readings switch the appropriate switch to the ON status.
