The CMWX1ZZABZ from Murata is a compact, low cost, low power wide area network (LPWAN) wireless module that supports the LoRaWAN long range wireless protocol. It is a pre-certified LPWAN wireless module that operates from 860 and 930 MHz.
The module requires a supply voltage of 2.2 to 3.6 VDC supply and provides an output power of up to 14 dBm but the output power can be increased to 20 dBm using a PA boost function. It integrates a Semtech SX1276 ultra long range spread spectrum wireless transceiver, TCXO and an STMicro STM32L0 series ARM Cortex-M0+ 32 bit microcontroller (MCU). The module is available in a metal shielded package that measures 12.5 x 11.6 x 1.76 mm and is ideal for smart metering, wearables, tracking, M2M and internet of things (IoT) edge nodes. Communication with the module can be achieved via UART, SPI, or I2C peripheral interfaces.
