Arduino.cc released two new boards called MKR. A few boards with MKR name are available in store. MKR FOX 1200 with IoT Sigfox module and basic board called MKR 1000 with WiFi WINC1500 module.



MKR WAN 1300
Arduino development board with SAMD21 (32bit ARM Cortex-M0+) microcontroller and Lo-Ra module CMWZ1ZZABZ by Murata company. The same module is used in LoRa discovery board with STM32L072 microcontroller.

MKR WAN 1300 can be powered by 2x AAA or AA battery and also 5V power supply. Of course, the MKR WAN 1300 can be powered by microUSB. u.FL connector for external antenna is on board.

LED is connected on D6 GPIO, not on D13.

The dimension of board is 67.64 x 25 mm weight of board is 32 g. The price is ?35 without shipping.
