What the cheaper board for dw1000?

Hi,

i'm an passionate user and i would like to connect two DW1000. From the Decawave homepage i learn that the EVB1000 evalutation board, mount the STM32F105, that is on sale at price of 300 euro aproximately in a lot of stores. Is there a cheaper board compatible with DW1000?

Thanks a lot.

This is the DW1000 driver and our self developed distance measurement application based on it. We do this as a semester thesis at ETH Zürich under the Automatic Control Laboratory … decawave, driver, dw1000, eth, Ranging, SPI, tranciever

I think that there are for your application. There is the DW1000 which is the SMD IC only and you will need to provide the additional capacitors, resistors, etc. as well as an ultra wide-band (UWB) antenna. The DWM1000 is a side-castellation package (half through-hole) with the DW1000 IC, the supporting components, and a PCB UWB antenna. Hope this helps.
