SparkFun Photon RedBoard

The SparkFun Photon RedBoard is a robust WiFi/Microcontroller development board in the Arduino form-factor for the Photon. It's user-friendly, potent, and cloud-connected. The Photon RedBoard is equipped with a 120MHz ARM Cortex M3 and built-in WiFi, making it a powerful IoT device. This board takes the capabilities of a Photon, extends it into the shape of an Arduino, and retains all its wireless and ARM Cortex M3 capabilities.

The SparkFun Photon RedBoard is designed around the P1 Particle Module. Each P1 comes pre-installed with Particle OS firmware and includes basic cloud service. The P1 includes a built-in antenna and a uFL connector, eliminating the need to worry about the optimization of RF designs.

The Photon RedBoard is equipped with 8 Digital I/O pins, 6 Analog Inputs, UART, SPI, and ARM JTAG hook-ups. It also features the SDA, SCL, SCK, MISO, MOSI, SS, DAC, and WKP pins. You can power the Photon RedBoard via USB or through the barrel jack. The board's on-board power regulator can handle anything from 4.5 to 15VDC. It's important to note that the Photon RedBoard utilises the Arduino form factor, which means you can attach a variety of Arduino shields to this board. However, remember to check your pin-outs and voltage levels first.
