From the project
Teapotlabs Feather RAK3172: Low-cost Low-power LoRaWAN Development Board
Teapotlabs Feather RAK3172 a Low-cost, Low-power LoRaWAN development board that breaks out RAKwireless RAK3172 to an Adafruit Feather-compatible format.
Based on the RAK3172, a STM32WLE5CC based module with ARM Cortex M4 processor, 48 MHz and 3.3V logic. The chip has a 256K of flash and 64K of RAM. With low-power application in mind, the board is capable to be in sleep mode for as low as 11uA, it also has a built-in voltage divider to sense battery voltage and battery charger.
