LoRa Module FAQ

＜INDEX＞

- Hardware

Can we develop our own applications in Murata's LoRa module?
What is the product lineup of Murata's LoRa modules? What are the differences?
What is the difference between CMWX1ZZABZ-078 and CMWX1ZZABZ-091?
Is a Modem version available for Murata's LoRa module Type ABZ?
We are defining the antenna for our prototypes. Does the RF pin already have the matching components to have 50 ohm impedance, or we need to add it externally?
In the datasheet, "STSAFE" chip option for this module has been mentioned. What is STSAFE option? How can I control it? Does this mean that "STSAFE" is optional or it is an option included in the module? What is the part number of the module?
What is the difference between LoRa and FSK? Can we use both FSK (Frequency Shift Keying) and LoRa modulation?
What is the realistic range of LoRa? What is the actual range that can be achieved?
How many LoRa nodes can be connected to one gateway? Can LoRa nodes talk to each other? Is mesh topology possible in LoRa?
Can uplink and downlink communication happen at the same time? Are there any restrictions on uplink/ downlink communication?
What are the external interfaces, and how many GPIOs are there? What about the flash size available in the ST MCU?
In Tx, Rx, and STOP mode, how much power is consumed for each?
Does the LoRa module support OTA firmware update?
How to increase data rate after enabling ADR?
