SparkFun Particle Photon
Hardware development projects often need a small processor for convenient proceedings. The SparkFun Particle photon is small-sized hardware that has been designed to make the process of hardware development much easier for IoT projects. The objective is to establish the connections between the IoT microcontroller and the hardware without going through complex procedures. There is an ARM Cortex-M3 (120MHz) microcontroller on SparkFun Particle Photon. In addition, it also contains a Broadcom WiFi Chip.
