Low-cost development platform enables IoT projects

NXP FRDM-KW40Z low-cost development kit is enabled by the Kinetis W series KW40Z/30Z/20Z (KW40Z) family and is suitable for IoT designs. Built on the ARM Cortex-M0+ processor, product provides an integrated 2.4GHz transceiver supporting Bluetooth Smart/Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) v4.1 and/or IEEE 802.15.4standards. Kit contains two boards, enabling point-to-point, out of the box connectivity. Each board can be configured as a Freedom development board or as a Freedom shield for connection to a host processor. hardware is form-factor compatible with the Arduino R3 pin layout, providing a broad range of expansion board options. http://canada.newark.com
