Li-Po battery powers Arduino MKR1000 for IoT

Posted by Unknown | Minggu, 10 Januari 2016 | Category: |

A new Arduino is joining the devboard lineup.


Welcome the MKR1000, and yes there's an IoT focus. According to the Arduino team it's a board that combines the functionality of the Zero and the connectivity of the Wi-Fi Shield.

"It's based on the Atmel ATSAMW25 that is part of the SmartConnect family of Atmel Wireless devices, specifically designed for IoT. It offers the ideal solution for makers seeking to add Wi-Fi connectivity with minimal previous experience in networking."

The 32-bit ARM runs at 32KHz, and the board supports 8 digital I/O pins, 7 analogue input pins (adc 8/10/12 bit) and 1 analogue output pin (dac 10 bit). There's 256KB of Flash memory and 32KB of SRAM, and for comms it supports 2.4GHz IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi. You can see the full tech spec below.

This board has been designed to offers a practical and cost effective solution for makers seeking to add Wi-Fi connectivity to their projects with minimal previous experience in networking."

The design includes a Li-Po charging circuit that allows the Arduino/Genuino MKR1000 to run on battery power or external 5V, charging the Li-Po battery while running on external power. Switching from one source to the other is done automatically."


About the Atmel SoC at the heart of the system, the Arduino team writes:

Arduino MKR1000 is based on the Atmel ATSAMW25 SoC (System on Chip), that is part of the SmartConnect family of Atmel Wireless devices, specifically designed for IoT projects and devices. The ATSAMW25 is composed of three main blocks:

• SAMD21 Cortex-M0+ 32bit low power ARM MCU
• WINC1500 low power 2.4GHz IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi
• ECC508 CryptoAuthentication
The ATSAMW25 includes also a single 1x1 stream PCB Antenna.

Arduino Maker Challenge

As part of the launch for the MKR1000, Arduino is running a competition with Microsoft on hackster.io - The World’s Largest Arduino Maker Challenge - for a chance to be one of a thousand winners of the new MKR1000 board.

"The contest is very flexible - choose anything you want to build from environmental sensors to gaming, augmented reality, robotics or UAVs using the power of Arduino.cc boards and Windows 10."

The contest started yesterday, 9 December 2015. Idea submissions close on 15 January 15, 2016.

As well as a board, three finalists submitting the best completed projects will be rewarded with: "a fully-funded trip to Maker Faire Shenzhen, New York or Rome; a chance to present their creation at the Microsoft and the Arduino and Genuino booths; a professional video production of the project; and a whopping $500 gift certificate to Adafruit".


The new board will be available for purchase from February 2016.
