WisBlock RAK13003 IO Module

The RAK13003 adds 16 digital inputs and outputs to a WisBlock node with the MCP23017 port expander from Microchip. The module is configured via I2C and reports changes at the inputs via two interrupt lines.

WisBlock from RAK Wireless is a modular system for building custom LoRaWAN and IoT nodes. Core, sensor and IO modules are plugged onto a base board and screwed in place.
