U-BLOX EVK-NORA-W101-00

The EVK-NORA-W10 evaluation kit provides stand-alone use of the NORA-W10 series module. This guide describes the hardware functionality of the EVK-NORA-W10 board and includes setup instructions for starting development. All pins and interfaces supported on NORA-W10 series modules are conveniently accessed from the evaluation board. A simple USB connection provides the physical interface for the power, programming, and COM ports. A USB peripheral connector, reset button, and four other user buttons are available. GPIO signals are available on headers that are compatible with the Arduino form factor, which allows for the convenient use of existing Arduino shields. Current sense resistors allow for measuring current into the module and into the shield.
