Quectel’s RAK5010 is a tracker which integrates LTE CAT M1 and NB1, GPS, BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy), and sensors. It is built on the Quectel BG96 LTE CAT M1 and NB1 module, which has an integrated GPS receiver. The MCU running the board is a Nordic nRF52840 controller. As it has both GPS and BLE it can be used for outdoor and indoor scenarios, where location-based services need be present.
There are four sensors on-board: humidity and temperature sensor, pressure sensor, 3-axis motion sensor, and ambient light sensor. The extension I/Os allow for adding more sensors in addition to the on-board ones.This board is particularly suitable to be used as a quick testing and prototyping tool for applications requiring NB-IoT connectivity.
Application development supports the GCC environment.
