ROTEK LoRa Module

A replaceable 433 MHz communication module within a standardized smart-meter form factor.

Status: Delivered and launched into production

Tools: Altium Designer · E32 · LoRa 433 MHz

A fixed envelope

I developed the complete hardware platform, excluding firmware, for a replaceable ROTEK smart-meter module. Mechanical and electrical constraints were defined by the applicable Rosseti requirements.

Fitting the complete radio system

The PCB integrates E32 radio, MCU/control circuitry, multiple power rails, service interfaces and meter connections. Placement balanced enclosure fit, RF operation, service access and manufacturability.

Full hardware ownership

I handled schematics, component selection, Altium libraries, layout, 3D verification and the production documentation package. The hardware was delivered to the customer and entered production.
