MCCI Catena 4460

The MCCI Catena® 4460 Environmental Sensor Wing is a flexible open-source IoT device wing designed specifically for use with the Adafruit Feather M0 with LoRa® radio system, but suitable for use with any Adafruit Feather CPU board. Like the Catena 4450, when combined with a suitable CPU, it is a ready-to-use platform for LoRaWAN™ 1.0 and 1.1 wireless IoT applications.

Its key feature is integration of a Bosch BME680 Integrated Environmental Sensor, capable of monitoring temperature, humidity, pressure, and volatile organic compounds (VOC). When used with suitable drivers, the BME680 can produce a simple air-quality index.

• A Bosch BME680 environmental sensor, measuring temperature, humidity, barometric pressure and gas resistance;
• A lux sensor, measuring from 0 to 65,536 lux of ambient light.
• 2 kbytes of ferro-electric RAM (FRAM) for non-volatile storage of network parameters, session keys, and application data (fully meeting requirements of LoRaWAN 1.0.2 and 1.1).
• Integrated jumpers to make the Feather M0 LoRa work with the Arduino LMIC without further modification or wiring -- just plug on the Catena 4460.
• An I2C expansion multiplexer, for adding additional I2C devices externally.
• Provisions for screw terminals (not included) for terminating external sensors.
