The brand new Alorium Sno M2 Processor joins the MicroMod household together with a large number of recent kits!
Howdy, everybody! We’re again once more with one other Friday Product Put up right here at SparkFun however this week, we’ve (one other) massive announcement! This week, we’re excited to announce the latest board to the MicroMod household: Meet the MicroMod Alorium Sno M2 Processor! This Arduino-programmable FPGA is ideal for these of you who’ve been fascinated about both FPGAs, MicroMod, or each a simple means into every area!
Following that, we’ve a brand new Floor Transducer Package that gives you with a enjoyable starter equipment to show most surfaces right into a speaker. However that is not all of the kits we’ve for you both, as a result of we even have two new intermediate kits for the Jetson Nano from NVIDIA and a brand new model of our in style mbed Starter Package with elevated storage capabilities. Lastly, we wrap the week with a brand new LoRa antenna. Phew… Alright, we’ve rather a lot to get by means of, so let’s leap in and take a better have a look at all of this week’s new merchandise!
An Arduino-programmable FPGA for MicroMod!
The SparkFun MicroMod Alorium Sno M2 Processor options the Snō System on Module (SoM) tailored to the MicroMod M.2 processor type issue. Snō’s FPGA offers a reconfigurable {hardware} platform that hosts an 8-bit AVR instruction set, suitable with the ATmega328, making Snō absolutely suitable with the Arduino IDE. Snō SoM has a compact footprint, making it best for space-constrained functions and an apparent addition to our MicroMod type issue for prototyping.
The SparkFun Floor Transducer Package offers you all the pieces it’s essential flip nearly any floor right into a speaker. A floor transducer is actually only a speaker besides as an alternative of a cone, the coil is connected to a pad that conducts the vibration into no matter you press it towards.

The SparkFun Jetson Nano Intermediate Kits offer you the entire important elements wanted to start out new tasks along with your Jetson Nano. All it’s essential resolve on is the way you’d prefer to energy it, by way of battery pack or wall adapter energy provide.
The SparkFun mbed Starter Package (mSK) is an effective way to get into user-created tasks created by ARM to help with fast prototyping on microcontrollers. The mSK, which makes use of the LPC1768 by ARM, consists of all the pieces it’s essential full 10 circuits that can educate you create a USB host, draw textual content and shapes on an LCD, log temperature information and extra. We advocate that you simply do have some earlier programming or electronics expertise earlier than utilizing this equipment.
When you want most distance to your LoRa challenge, you want this extremely sturdy, out of doors antenna with 5.8dBi achieve. This 863-870MHz antenna is 90cm / 35.5″ lengthy and consists of {hardware} for pole mounting. Fabricated from fiberglass and aluminum, this antenna is right for heavy-duty and high-power LoRa base stations, however can be utilized with LoRa nodes as properly.
That is it for this week. As at all times, we will not wait to see what you make. Shoot us a tweet @sparkfun, or tell us on Instagram, Fb or LinkedIn. Please be secure on the market, be type to 1 one other, and we’ll see you subsequent week with much more new merchandise!
By no means miss a brand new product!
