Product Link

HELTEC WiFi LoRa ESP32 SX1262 LoRa Node Meshtastic LoRaWAN 868Mhz V3OpenELAB Technology Ltd.

Description

WiFi LoRa 32 is a classic IoT dev-board designed & produced by Heltec Automation. Since its launch in 2017, it has been loved by developers and makers. The newly launched V3 version has the same pin sequence as the V2 version and retains Wi-Fi, BLE, LoRa, OLED display, and other functions.

It is the best option for smart cities, farms, homes, industrial control, house security, wireless meter reading, and IoT developers.

Feature

• Microprocessor: ESP32-S3FN8 (Xtensa® 32-bit LX7 dual-core processor, five-stage pipeline rack Structure, frequency up to 240 MHz).

• SX1262 LoRa node chip.

• Type-C USB interface with a complete voltage regulator, ESD protection, short circuit protection, RF shielding, and other protection measures.

USB Type C

Plastic Shell

Onboard OLED Display

The power supply, firmware download, and debugging interfaces adopt a more universal USB Type C interface, making development work more convenient.

We also made a plastic shell as an optional accessory. Which provide basic protection for the development board.

The integrated OLED display can be used to show some information such as system status and parameters, making it convenient for users to directly use the entire development board for their own product design.

FAQ

1

Can the onboard 2.4GHz antenna be replaced?

The 2.4GHz antenna is a spring antenna, and there is no additional interface on the board for 2.4GHz wireless signals.

2

Can ESP32’s WiFi and Bluetooth be used at the same time?

No, the WiFi LoRa 32 don’t have an external PSRAM, if your application need use Bluetooth and Wi-Fi at the same time, you can look into this product: Heltec Wireless Bridge.

3

What development methods does it support?

• Arduino

• Micro Python

• Platform.io

• Espressif IDE

We strongly recommend using Arduino. We have complete technical support and provide complete LoRaWAN code for ESP32 Arduino framework.

4

What’s the battery socket type?

You can find this type of socket by search “SH1.25 x 2”.

5

Can I order a version without the OLED display?

Of course, you can contact our sales staff and provide your ideas.

6

Is V2 code compatible with V3?

No, the MCU is different.

7

Meshtastic screen has a digital front-end issue?

It’s caused by the meshtastic setting. Changing the default screen to SSD1306 can solve the problem.

The specific steps are as follows:

“Radio configuration”→”Display”→”Override OLED auto-detect”→”SSD1306”
