This module includes an integrated trace antenna, fits the IC to an FCC-approved footprint along with including decoupling and timing mechanisms that would need to be designed into a circuit using the bare nRF52840 IC. The Bluetooth transceiver included on the nRF52840 boasts a BT 5.1 stack and supports Bluetooth 5, Bluetooth mesh, IEEE 802.15.4 (Zigbee \u0026amp; Thread) and 2.4Ghz RF wireless protocols (including Nordic's proprietary RF protocol) allowing you to pick which option works best for your application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSaprkFun have also routed two I2C buses, 2 SPI buses, eleven GPIO, dedicated digital, analog, PWM \u0026amp; PDM pins along with multiple serial UARTS to cover nearly all of your peripheral needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/collections\/MicroMod\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMicroMod\u003c\/a\u003e is a modular interface ecosystem that connects a microcontroller “processor board” to various “carrier board” peripherals.
