What is it?

This New Maduino Zero SIM868 GPS Tracker is the upgrade version of Maduino zero SIM808, It is an IoT (Internet of things) Solution based on the 32-bit Atmel’s SAMD21 MCU and GPRS/GSM GPS/Bluetooth module SIM868. It integrates a Micro Controller ATSAMD21G18, SIM868E, power management, and storage, to make it ready for a real project for IoT projects such as smart-home, outdoor monitoring, shared bicycle, etc.

Compares to the previous SIM808 Module, this module updated on the Bluetooth and GNSS: The Maduino Zero SIM868 GPS Tracker based on the Arduino, users can program it with Arduino IDE, which is very easy especially suit for the none-programmers.

Note that the USB connection for GPS tracker is only for data transmission or programming, external power, either by battery or DC jack, is needed to make GPS tracker works.

Based on those Maduino IoT solutions, Makerfabs can also help to customize those boards with customer's special requests. Pls contact sales@makerfabs.com for detailed info and further discussion. More detail you can read our PCB Design and PCBA Turnkey Solution.
