Introduction

In addition to the Expansion Board, Pycom also offers three additional sensor boards, which are ideal for quickly building a fully functioning IoT solution! Whether the application is environment sensing or asset tracking, these additional boards support a variety of sensors.

Pytrack

Pytrack is a location enabled version of the Expansion Board, intended for use in GPS applications such as asset tracking or monitoring.

Features & Hardware

The Pytrack is has a number of features including GPS, 3-Axis Accelerometer and Battery Charger. See the list below for detailed specifics about each sensor, including datasheets.

  • Serial USB
  • 3-Axis Accelerometer (LIS2HH12)
  • Battery Charger (BQ24040 with JST connector)
  • GPS and GLONASS (L76-L)
  • MicroSD Card Reader

All of the included sensors are connected to the Pycom device via the I2C interface. These pins are located at P22 (SDA) and P21 (SCL).
