ARDUINO MKR1000 WIFI WITH
HEADERS MOUNTED
Code: ABX00011
Arduino MKR1000 is a powerful board that combines the functionality of the Zero
and the Wi-Fi Shield. It is the ideal solution for makers wanting to design IoT
projects with minimal previous experience in networking.
Arduino MKR1000 has been designed to offer a practical and cost effective solution for makers seeking to
add Wi-Fi connectivity to their projects with minimal previous experience in networking.It is based on the
Atmel ATSAMW25 SoC (System on Chip), that is part of the SmartConnect family of Atmel Wireless
devices, specifically designed for IoT projects and devices.
The ATSAMW25 is composed of three main blocks:
SAMD21 Cortex-M0+ 32bit low power ARM MCU
WINC1500 low power 2.4GHz IEEE® 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi
ECC508 CryptoAuthentication
The ATSAMW25 includes also a single 1x1 stream PCB Antenna.
The design includes a Li-Po charging circuit that allows the Arduino/Genuino MKR1000 to run on battery
power or external 5V, charging the Li-Po battery while running on external power. Switching from one
source to the other is done automatically.A good 32 bit computational power similar to the Zero board, the
usual rich set of I/O interfaces, low power Wi-Fi with a Cryptochip for secure communication, and the ease
of use of the Arduino Software (IDE) for code development and programming.
