RisingHF announces the new generation of Long Range gateways equipped with RT-Thread.

The gateway features a dual-CPU architecture with STM32F74x and STM32L05x, equipped with the RT-Thread Internet of Things operating system. The main CPU is an ARM 32-bit Cortex-M7 core with a clock speed of up to 216MHz; it also integrates an SX1301 LoRa baseband processing chip, capable of supporting 8 multi-SF channels (SF12 to SF7), 1 single-SF channel, and 1 high-speed GFSK channel. The output power can reach up to 24dBm, and the sensitivity is -142dBm@300bps. Under specific transmission cycle and data length conditions, a single gateway can connect to tens of thousands of nodes. It also achieves automatic switching between same-frequency half-duplex and different-frequency full-duplex, with the different-frequency full-duplex mode further enhancing the gateway's access capacity.

 

Functional Features:

· Diverse data return methods

Integrated high-performance universal 4G module and low-power Ethernet chip, allowing users to flexibly choose data return methods.

· Convenient and easy-to-use configuration interface

The gateway integrates a low-power Wi-Fi module, enabling users to query the status and configure functions of the gateway using a PC or mobile phone via Wi-Fi.

· Flexible, stable, and reliable power supply method

The gateway is equipped with a 3200mAh lithium iron phosphate battery, which can effectively prevent device failure due to unexpected power outages. The device is equipped with an industrial-grade power adapter that can withstand ±10KV level lightning surge impacts, and it integrates a solar charging circuit, supporting solar charging and external expansion of larger capacity batteries.

· Industrial-grade protection for worry-free safety

±10KV lightning protection capability; IP65 dust and water protection rating; very suitable for wireless water meters, electricity meters, gas meters, heat meters, and other IoT low-power wide-area network group networking uses.

Equipped with RT-Thread Internet of Things Operating System:

The RHF2S002 LoRa gateway integrates many hardware peripherals inside, such as the core LoRa gateway chip, GPS module, 4G module, Ethernet PHY, Wi-Fi module, buttons, LEDs, power management system. At the same time, in order to reduce the gateway power consumption as much as possible, a dual-CPU design approach is adopted in the design. This makes the product software design very difficult. The traditional MCU bare-metal programming method and even the programming method using only a single real-time system kernel can not guarantee to meet the product development cycle and produce high-quality, low-fault products in the early stage. Therefore, the company evaluated several real-time operating system kernels applicable to MCUs, including FreeRTOS (ST official library) and RIO, at the initial design of the product, and finally chose RT-Thread, which has richer component support, development, and documentation and other corresponding supporting resources, at the start of product design. During the product development process, the RT-Thread team also gave the company great support in low-power design and file system design of the product.

 

The gateway product uses the following RT-Thread components:

· RT-Thread operating system kernel

· Ethernet (LWIP)

· MQTT

· 4G module

· Wi-Fi

· Low-power management framework

· Other MCU on-chip peripheral drivers, such as serial ports, SPI, etc.

 

The use of RT-Thread in the product greatly simplifies the development work of engineers. Engineers can focus on solving product business logic and functional requirements, without having to reinvent every wheel, which greatly accelerates the project development process and ensures product quality, benefiting a lot!

 

The RHF2S002 will be available for pre-sale in the near future. If you need to order in advance, please contact the relevant sales personnel of RisingHF or email salescn@risinghf.com for consultation.
