TRACKER ONE

(005)

The Tracker One is a ready-to-go Tracker SoM carrier board with optional

weatherproof enclosure. It is used with other equipment, such as on a truck. It

is not a portable device.

 Readytogo with IP67-rated enclosure.

 GNSSAntennaOnboard: convenient high-gain GNSS antenna for easy

access to GNSS signals.

 FlexiblePowerSupply: easily add asset tracking to most devices. A

wide 6-30V power supply copes with most power delivery systems. Also

accepts 5V supply via USB-C. LiPo battery connector, charge LED,

backup battery for GPS. Supports up to 90V when connecting directly to

the carrier board.

 High‐precisionThermistor with accuracy to 1%.

 Extensible: IP67-rated M8 connector includes CAN Bus, UART, GPIO,

and power for simple expansion.

 USB‐C for flashing, debugging and power with higher charging rates than

Micro-USB or for use without an internal battery.

 RGBLED for use as both a user-configurable device as well as Particle

status information.

View as looking into the M8 connector on the outside of the enclosure. Note: Version 003 and earlier of this datasheet had a different pin numbering for M8 connector that didn't match the connector manufacturer's numbering. Only the numbering has changed; the function of the pin at a given location is unchanged and the change should not affect existing designs. 1MCU GPIO is limited to 3.3V maximum. 2CAN Bus specifications can be found in the Tracker SoM datasheet.

Note: The Tracker Carrier Board has a smaller bottom tab to provide space for the M8 connector. Product Handling ESD Precautions The Tracker SoM contains highly sensitive electronic circuitry and is an Electrostatic Sensitive Device (ESD). Handling an module without proper ESD protection may destroy or damage it permanently.

and operation of any application that incorporates the module. ESD precautions should be implemented on the application board where the B series is mounted. Failure to observe these precautions can result in severe damage to the module! Disposal This device must be treated as Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment (WEEE) when disposed of. Any WEEE marked waste products must not be mixed with general household waste, but kept separate for the treatment, recovery and recycling of the materials used.
