    RisingHF ST Nucleo LoRa GW User Guide 7 Others information for reference 7.1 Power supply and consumption 7.1.1 Power supply The power supply +5V will be injected into the system via micro USB connector of the Nucleo shield (blue board) from an external adapter. The max rated current of this adapter is suggested to be more than 1A.
  • Page 25: Power Consumption

    RisingHF ST Nucleo LoRa GW User Guide 7.1.2 Power consumption Table 7-1 below shows the current consumption of the Nucleo shield module in different mode. The maximum current would be almost 360mA when both uplink and downlink are on. Table 7-1 Power consumption of ST LoRa Nucleo GW Module...

    RisingHF ST Nucleo LoRa GW User Guide 7.3 RF performance measurement Table 7-2 below shows the RF performance in conductive test. Please note that, there is no external PA refer to Semtech’s reference design, so the RF power is output from SX125x FEM directly. The maximum output power normally would be 6-7dBm type in different band.
