Arduino Nano 33 IoT COM53, R37

DescriptionArduino Nano 33 IoT allows you to build your next smart project. Ever wanted an automated house? Or a smart garden? Well, now it’s easy with the Arduino IoT Cloud compatible boards. It means: you can connect devices, visualize data, control and share your projects from anywhere in the world. Whether you’re a beginner or a pro, we have a wide range of plans to make sure you get the features you need.The Arduino Nano 33 IoT is the easiest and cheapest point of entry to enhance existing devices (and creating new ones) to be part of the IoT and designing pico-network applications. Whether you are looking at building a sensor network connected to your office or home router, or if you want to create a Bluetooth® Low Energy device sending data to a cellphone, the Nano 33 IoT is your one-stop-solution for many of the basic IoT application scenarios.The board’s main processor is a low power Arm® Cortex®-M0 32-bit SAMD21. The WiFi and Bluetooth® connectivity is performed with a module from u-blox, the NINA-W10, a low power chipset operating in the 2.4GHz range. On top of those, secure communication is ensured through the Microchip® ECC608 crypto chip. Besides that, you can find a 6 axis IMU, what makes this board perfect for simple vibration alarm systems, pedometers, relative positioning of robots, etc.WiFi and Arduino IoT CloudAt Arduino we have made connecting to a WiFi network as easy as getting an LED to blink. You can get your board to connect to any kind of existing WiFi network, or use it to create your own Arduino Access Point. You can consult the specific set of examples for the Nano 33 IoT at the WiFiNINA library reference page.It is also possible to connect your board to different Cloud services, Arduino’s own among others. Here some examples on how to get the Arduino boards to connect to:Arduino’s own IoT Cloud: Arduino’s IoT Cloud is a simple and fast way to ensure secure communication for all of your connected Things.

Something pretty unique in the world of microcontroller platforms. If you want to see how easy it is to create a Bluetooth® central or a peripheral device, explore the examples at our ArduinoBLE library.We Make it Open for you to Hack AlongThe Nano 33 IoT is a dual processor device that invites for experimentation. Hacking the WiFiNINA module allows you to, for example, make use of both WiFi and Bluetooth® and Bluetooth® Low Energy at once on the board. Yet another possibility is having a super-lightweight version of linux running on the module, while the main microcontroller controls low level devices like motors, or screens. These experimental techniques, require advanced hacking on your side. They are possible via modifying the module’s firmware that you can find at our github repositories.BEWARE: this kind of hacking breaks the certification of your WiFiNINA module, do it at your own risk.SpecificationsThe microcontroller on the Arduino Nano 33 IoT runs at 3.3V, which means that you must never apply more than 3.3V to its Digital and Analog pins. We have to be careful when connecting sensors and actuators to assure that this limit of 3.3V is never exceeded. Connecting higher voltage signals, like the 5V commonly used with the other Arduino boards, will damage the Arduino Nano 33 IoT.To avoid such risk with existing projects, where you should be able to pull out a Nano and replace it with the new Nano 33 IoT, we have the 5V pin on the header, positioned between RST and A7 that is not connected as default factory setting. This means that if you have a design that takes 5V from that pin, it won’t work immediately, as a precaution we put in place to draw your attention to the 3.3V compliance on digital and analog inputs.5V on that pin is available only when two conditions are met: you make a solder bridge on the two pads marked as VUSB and you power the NANO 33 IoT through the USB port. If you power the board from the VIN pin, you won’t get any regulated 5V and therefore even if you do the solder bridge, nothing will come out of that 5V pin. The 3.3V, on the other hand, is always available and supports enough current to drive your sensors. Please make your designs so that sensors and actuators you want to drive work with 3.3V digital IO levels. 5V is now an option for many modules and 3.3V is becoming the standard voltage for electronic ICs.Features Summary TableBoardNameArduino® Nano 33 IoTSKUABX00027MicrocontrollerSAMD21 Cortex®-M0 32bit low power ARM MCUUSB connectorMicro USBPinsBuilt-in LED Pin13Digital I/O Pins14Analog input pins8PWM pins5External interruptsAll digital pinsConnectivityWi-FiNina W102 uBlox moduleBluetooth®Nina W102 uBlox moduleSensorsIMULSM6DS3CommunicationUARTRX/TXI2CA4 (SDA), A5 (SCL)SPID11 (COPI), D12 (CIPO), D13 (SCK).
