This Hardware Integration Guide describes both the RM186 (868MHz band for EU) and RM191 (915MHz band
for US). The differences will be outlined in the Radio Specifications.
Every RM1xx Series module is designed to enable OEMs to add a long range LoRa radio link as well as central
role Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to small, portable, power-conscious devices. The RM1xx modules are enabled
with Laird’s smart
BASIC, an event-driven programming language that enables OEMs to make their product
development quicker and simpler, significantly reducing time to market. smartBASIC enables customers to
develop a complete embedded application inside the compact RM1xx hardware, connecting to a wide array of
external sensors via its I2C, SPI, UART, ADC or GPIO interfaces.
Based on the world-leading Nordic Semiconductor nRF51822 (BLE) and Semtech Sx1272 (LoRa) chipsets, the
RM1xx modules provide
ultra- low power consumption with outstanding wireless range using the LoRa radio link
and local BLE connections via 3 dBm of transmit power. This document should be read in conjunction with the
smart BASIC user manual.
