3.0 Hardware Description
3.4 MHX Development Board
The MHX Development Board can be used to evaluate the Nano Series using the Nano Interface Card as an
adapter. The MHX development board can then provide a number of convenient interfaces for the Nano
module:
•
power
•
data interfaces
•
indicators
•
antenna connection
