Overview
Purpose of this documentation is to give some useful information how to get started with the
iC880A-SPI and the open source LoRa HAL published on the github platform.
The concentrator module iC880A-SPI is meant to be connected to a host system forming an
integrated gateway.
1.1
Hardware PCB
Figure 1-1 depicts the printed circuit board of the iC880A-SPI. As main interface there are the
pin headers for connecting the board to a host system that runs the driver software. A SMA
connector or an uFL connector is supplied in order to connect any suitable antenna to this
board. The board offers some LEDs to give a visual feedback of the current operation status of
the board. The concrete meaning of the LEDs is software dependant. As default in Version 1.7
the setting of the LEDs is:
1)
Backhaul packet
2)
TX packet
3)
RX Sensor packet
4)
RX FSK packet
5)
RX buffer not empty
6)
Power
