1. Overview
The RIOT-002B is an environment sensing board consisting of one board, which is the RIoT2 Main
Board equipped with a secondary battery of CT04120 manufactured by Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
It can send information of a temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure sensor, an ambient light
sensor, and a 3-axis acceleration sensor mounted on the RIOT-002B to a tablet or other devices using
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and can be operated with an indoor-use photovoltaic panel (*1).
The secondary battery mounted on the RIOT-002B stores electric power extracted efficiently from a
photovoltaic panel by the R1801, a buck DC/DC switching regulator for energy harvesters. The RP605,
an ultra-low consumption current buck-boost DC/DC switching regulator, and the RP118, a voltage
regulator, efficiently supply electric power to a built-in BLE module in a MCU and various sensors. The
RP605 also has a function to monitor the voltage of the secondary battery, which can be checked by
sending it to a tablet or other devices as BLE data via an AD converter (ADC) of the BLE module.
In addition, this product has the R2221, a real-time clock IC, and it can set any desired operating day of
the week and operating start/end time, such as 8:00 to 19:00, by using a dedicated application.
