Description
The
X-NUCLEO-S2868A1
expansion board is based on the
S2-LP
radio and
operates in the 868 MHz ISM frequency band.
The expansion board is compatible with
ST
morpho and Arduino UNO R3
connectors.
The X-NUCLEO-S2868A1 interfaces with the
STM32 Nucleo
microcontroller via SPI
connections and GPIO pins. You can change some of the GPIOs by mounting or
removing the resistors.
