After long day of routing, first render/version of my #tinyLoRa (TLM01) module is ready. I presume this will be the world's smallest #LoRa+MCU module based on @MicrochipTech #ATSAMR34.

@hamityanik and @GregDavill I would love to get some tips on how to get beautiful results while rendering with @kicad_pcb.

After some polishing, this is how #TinyLoRa looks now 🙂

Finally after a long wait #TinyLoRa PCBs are here. Look how small it is. It's going to be a fun soldering experience with a cost of losing some eyesight 👀

Fresh from the oven 😋

First successful test of #TinyLoRa with #LoRaWAN. Many thanks to: @thethingsntwrk, @MicrochipMakes and @oshpark.

Hey guys. I uploaded all the design files for the #TinyLoRa module to my @github. Those who're interested in reviewing it please have a look at here: github.com/condorxan/Tiny…

First batch of #TinyLoRa v1.1 module PCB has been sent to @PCBGOGOofficial for fabrication and assembly. 🤞

New batch of #TinyLoRa modules has just arrived. Time to do extensive tests on them. #LoRa #LoRaWAN #ATSAMR34 #SAMR34

Some new shots of the hand-soldered #TinyLoRa Feather breakouts. #ATSAMR34 #SAMR34 #LoRa #LoRaWAN

First limited batch of #TinyLoRa dev-boards are up for sale on @tindie. #SAMR43 #LoRa @MicrochipMakes @thethingsntwrk @LoRaWANAcademy

Poor man's hot plate (temperature controlled) for soldering some #TinyLoRa breakouts ♨️

Thoroughly testing each #TinyLoRa board before shipping.

First time doing a pinout diagram (for TinyLoRa). That was more fun than I expected.

Ready to bake another batch of #TinyLoRa cookies.

@tindie 3D printed #Feather snap case fits perfectly for #TinyLoRa.

@tindie Did some power measurements on my #TinyLoRa module using #SAMR34 Xplained-Pro's built in current measurement capabilities.

When you hit the nano-Amp range, that's what true #lowpower means.

@tindie @MicrochipTech @MicrochipMakes Gotta have a new name - #Penguino Feather🐧

Looks like soon we'll have a fully functional @arduino core for #Penguino #SAMR34. Many thanks to @ForeverWero.

Getting ready for another cooking round. #SAMR34 #Penguino

@MicrochipMakes @JLCPCB @tindie #Penguino v1.2 back in stock! This time with optional SMA Antennas.

RF testing each #Penguino board before shipping 👍 -43dBm with #TTIG (3 meters away) and a small +2dBi SMA Antenna 📶 using @rfexplorer spectrum analyzer.

Soldered some @oshpark #afterDark version of the #Penguino boards.

@oshpark @tindie Some new #Penguino #SAMR34 shots. #afterdark kinda grows on me.
