nanoPAN 5375 Development Kit
High Output Power Development Kit for Creating Robust Distance and Location-Aware Wireless Applications
The nanoPAN 5375 Development Kit is a fast and convenient way to develop and test distance and location-aware wireless applications. Without additional effort, these applications can then be immediately integrated into products using the nanoPAN 5375 RF Module.
Long range is assured due to the development board’s high output power of +20 dBm. Power supply and data transfer share a single USB interface. Optional Li-Ion rechargeable batteries are available. The board’s small form factor allows for an optional housing, while a movement sensor can further increase battery lifetime.

nanoLOC Location Demo |
The kit features a Location Demo with client/server technology that precisely tracks and displays up to sixteen tag locations. These tags can be remotely monitored by up to sixteen anchors. This demo application is configurable to allow free anchor positioning, tag tracing, and data logging with a playback function.
Four demo applications are also included with the kit that show the robust communication and ranging capabilities of the nanoPAN 5375 RF Module. Additionally, debugging and flashing tools as well as several testing applications are provided for rapid application development.
Embedded applications are provided as sample code [1] to support building Real-Time-Location Solutions (RTLS).
