For engineers building low-power, long-range IoT systems, OneThinx’s pre-certified LoRaWAN module offers a straightforward path to deployment. Built around the Semtech SX126x and Infineon PSoC 6 dual-core microcontroller, the module supports both LoRaWAN and Bluetooth Low Energy, enabling robust long-range communication with the flexibility of local data access.

The dual-core architecture separates the radio stack (on the M0+) from the user application (on the M4), allowing developers to run custom code without interfering with network functionality. This isolation boosts both security and system reliability, especially for battery-powered devices deployed in remote or harsh environments.OneThinx’s development experience is streamlined for engineers. Modules arrive with integrated firmware, a fully working radio stack, and extensive examples hosted on GitHub. The company’s stated goal is to have you up and running in under an hour using just three commands. Engineers can program the module via Visual Studio Code, a familiar environment for many.The module also includes Bluetooth functionality, initially considered a bonus but now an asset for provisioning, configuration, and data retrieval in situations where LoRaWAN coverage is temporarily unavailable. OneThinx provides firmware-level support for dual-mode applications.Real-world use cases include soil moisture monitoring, livestock tracking, and infrastructure health sensing (like levees or dikes). OneThinx modules are already in field deployments operating with battery lives of five years, sending data every 30 minutes using lithium-thionyl chloride cells.What truly sets OneThinx apart is its developer-first mindset. The team offers global support across email, social platforms, and Discord, at no extra charge. Where other module vendors provide hardware alone, OneThinx offers support, firmware, and a developer community.Whether you’re building for smart agriculture, industrial monitoring, or scalable IoT deployments, OneThinx’s LoRaWAN module provides a low-power, scalable foundation backed by accessible tools and responsive support.
