Arch GPRS V2
Arch GPRS V2
is the new and improved version of the Arch GPRS development board from
Seeed Studio
. Like the original Arch GPRS, it is
also an
mbed
enabled development board that houses a cellular networking module along with a microcontroller. Arch GPRS V2 uses the
LPC11U37 Microcontroller instead of the LPC11U24 used in the Arch GPRS. You can use the mbed C/C++ SDK, libraries and optimizing
online development tools to rapidly build your Arch GPRS V2 based prototype. The cellular networking module on the Arch GPRS is based
on the SIM900 Quad-band GSM/GRPS engine from SIMCom. With this, data collection functions can be performed easily using the 2G
GSM/GPRS based cellular network. Arch GPRS V2 has a standard Arduino interface as well as
Grove
connectors on board. It is convenient
to connect existing Shields and
Grove
products to Arch GPRS V2. You can even connect a solar panel directly to the board to allow the
battery to charge from it. A low-power design guarantees easy charging and long hour operations when outdoors!
Note
Arch GPRS V2 does not come with
an mbed interface
