The RAK5010 is a cellular board based on Quectel's BG95 modem (Qualcomm chipset). A Nordic nRF52840 microcontroller "runs the show", connecting to the modem via UART. This is a nice combination for a number of applications like remote sensing, application tracking, and Bluetooth <> Cellular gateway. Let's walk through the process of developing for this board in the Zephyr RTOS.
Turn your Bluetooth devices into a connected IoT fleet using Golioth. This post walks through the process of creating a Bluetooth to Cellular gateway and sending sensor data to the cloud.
Golioth works with Qualcomm. The Golioth Firmware SDK, release 0.12.0, supports the Zephyr Modem subsystem. This enables support for more modem technologies, starting with Qualcomm, and support for the Quectel BG95 as a first class cellular modem.
Both Zephyr and Golioth have solutions for keeping track of multiple revisions of your hardware. Let's walk through how to tell Zephyr there is both a "Rev A" and "Rev B" of your hardware. We'll finish up by talking about how Golioth organizes OTA firmware updates for your different board revisions.
We are returning to Embedded World in 2024 (EW24) and will be showing off new Golioth features, as well as end-to-end IoT demos (Reference Designs) at the Zephyr booth and with partners around the fair.
