Adafruit Spark Core with Chip Antenna Rev 1.0

The Photon is a Wi-Fi-enabled microcontroller development platform designed to bring your Internet of Things projects to life. Equipped with an STM microprocessor, it provides seamless cloud connectivity, reducing the complexity of network integration.

Though similar to Arduino in programming language, the Particle Photon offers enhanced performance, speed, and cost efficiency. Its compact, low-power design does the heavy Wi-Fi lifting while you focus on your project's creative aspects.

Accessing the Particle cloud platform lets you send and receive data effortlessly, offering flexibility without needing in-depth local network configurations. Each Photon package includes a core module, USB cable, sticker, and medium-sized breadboard, ensuring you have everything required for immediate project development.

Note: Following a name change, Spark.io is now known as Particle. The functionality, quality, and design remain consistent under this brand evolution.
