EMF TiLDA RFM69 Shields

[Adam Greig]

Hi all,

I've made up about 50 of these to give away at EMF:

It's got a footprint for an RFM69 and connects to one of the accessory ports on the EMF TiLDA badges, so you can interface to the RFM from Python running on the badge. It's also got an onboard antenna (though I'm yet to test this so it might not be a very good antenna!) or you can just solder a bit of wire to the pad to add a normal antenna instead.

You'll need an RFM69 and 11 pins of pin headers to connect it up (plus an optional 1u 0402 capacitor if you want..) but I'm sure people can find those ;)

I'm hoping to have figured out getting the badge to talk to it in advance of EMF, so that normal Python code should be able to work much like the rpi stuff, in which case they should function quite well as sensor nodes or gateways or just handheld UKHASnet chat terminals!

Cheers,

Adam
