Photon MCU + Wi-Fi Modules
Particle's tiny MCU + Wi-Fi module with FCC certification for creating connected projects and products for the Internet of Things
Particle's Photon product line provides everything needed to build a connected product, combining a powerful STM32 ARM® Cortex®-M3 microcontroller with a Cypress WICED BCM43362 Wi-Fi chip in a tiny thumbnail-sized module. To get users started quickly, Particle adds a rock solid 3.3 VDC SMPS power supply, RF, and user interface components to the module on a small single-sided PCB Photon board. The design is open source to provide easy integration of the Photon into any IoT project.
The Photon board comes in two physical forms: with headers and without. Prototyping is easy with headers as the Photon plugs directly into standard breadboards and perfboards, and may also be mounted with 0.1" pitch female headers on a PCB. To minimize space required, the Photon form factor without headers has castellated edges for surface mounting directly onto a PCB. Additionally, the FCC-certified P1 SMD module possesses the same MCU and wireless functionality and firmware libraries as the Photon board to simplify the transition from prototype to production.
The tools that make up the Photon's ecosystem (and come with the board) are designed to let users build and create whether an embedded engineer, web developer, Arduino enthusiast, or IoT entrepreneur. Users are able to write firmware in Particle’s web or local IDE, deploy it over the air, and build web and mobile apps with ParticleJS and Mobile SDKs.
