Hello RIOT users,
Now I study how to use RIOT OS on the Nucleo-F446RE board. Compiling sources, flashing elf file and inputting OS commands by pyterm is OK. Next step is wireless communication between two boards. But Nucleo-F446RE board does not equip RF.
Is it possible to connect RF board on the Nucleo-F446RE board ?. If possible, which is the best sutable RF board for Nucleo-F446RE board ?. Please inform me the RF board name, price and WEB-site to buy it.
Best regards, Dicek Bear.
I don't know about any shields specific to the Morpho connectors on the Nucleo boards, but you can use any module with a supported radio chip if you wire it up yourself with a bunch of jumper wires.
at86rf233 is a widely used and well supported chip, [1] has a cheap module with it.
Another option is a mrf24j40 module. Those are a bit older but work well too. You can get them on ebay or AliExpress. Just note that the mrf24j40ma variant doesn't have a build-in amplifier so the signal will not be as good as with mrf24j40md/e (the e variant requires an external antenna though)
Best, Benjamin
