Hi, 

We want to develop a LoRa node based on( https://github.com/Lora-net/LoRaMac-node).They are using STM32L151CB & STM32L151C8 MCUs. So, could you please suggest us a development board + all necessary accessories to be able to connect SX1276 to the board and start developing.Thanks!

What facet of those particular parts?

Could you prototype with an L152 NUCLEO or DISCO?

Hi,

I could not understand your first question.Regarding second one, I did not try any one of them, I am asking for your help to suggest me the best one that matches my requirments. I would appreciate any help from any one.Thanks in advance.

Why are you limited to those specific STM32L1xx parts? I would suggest you do some due diligence work on understanding the code base, and parts used in this project. Discuss with your project supervisor.

I am following it because I want to be up to date with Semtech's stach implementation. Once they release an updated version of the code, I updated my hardware. 

Note: I have RFM95 LoRa modulePlease, if you can suggest me another MCUs that satisfies my needs, I would appreciate it.

I believe the L152 NUCLEO and DISCO boards cited earlier will get the job done, and be an easier port. They have more FLASH/RAM than the part you specified.

It is important that *you* understand the project and its requirements yourself, I don't work for you and this isn't my project, you'll need to do your own homework. There are no doubt a number of boards you can use to mash-up a working LoRa demonstration.

Agreed.

In general, you will find that chipmakers cannot provide individual dev boards for each and every possible variant of their entire product range. It is simple not practical.

Instead, they will produce a devboard which is representative of a certain range of products.

So, as

Turvey.Clive.002

‌ says, I think you will find that the

L152 NUCLEO and DISCO boards are representative of the

STM32L151CB & STM32L151C8 parts that you mention.

You can look at the datasheets to determine the precise differences, and whether there is anything critical missing for yourparticular requirements ...

EDIT

There is also this:

It contains an STM32L072 (Cortex-M0+) and

SX1276
