Resouces & Going Further
The Photon RedBoard is open-source, so there are loads of resources available should you need them:
- Photon RedBoard GitHub Repository -- The EAGLE hardware design files can all be found here.
- Photon RedBoard Schematic -- A PDF of the Photon RedBoard's schematic.
- Particle CLI -- The Particle CLI is a powerful tool for interacting with your Photon RedBoard and the Particle Device Cloud. The CLI install includes device drivers in case they do not install automatically.
- P1 Datasheet -- Particle's web-hosted datasheet is a great resources for questions dealing with the P1 module featured on the Photon RedBoard.
- Particle Firmware Source -- This is where you'll find the latest firmware available for all Particle development boards, including the Photon RedBoard.
- Particle Documentation Home -- Particle has loads of great documentation, covering everything from getting started to a firmware reference guide.
- USI WM-N-BM-14-S Datasheet -- This is a datasheet for the WM-N-BM-14-S module, which the P1 is based on.
As you continue developing firmware for the Photon RedBoard, we encourage you to check out all of the development environment options available. Check out our Photon Development Guide for more information!
