The basic Arduino board to build secure WiFi and Bluetooth® applications.

The Arduino MKR WiFi 1010 is the easiest point of entry to basic IoT and pico-network application design. Whether you are looking at building a sensor network connected to your office or home router, or if you want to create a BLE device sending data to a cellphone, the MKR WiFi 1010 is your one-stop-solution for many of the basic IoT application scenarios.

The board's main processor is a low power Arm® Cortex®-M0 32-bit SAMD21, like in the other boards within the Arduino MKR family. The WiFi and Bluetooth® connectivity is performed with a module from u-blox, the NINA-W10, a low power chipset operating in the 2.4GHz range. On top of those, secure communication is ensured through the Microchip® ECC508 crypto chip. Besides that, you can find a battery charger, and a directional RGB LED on-board.

Getting Started

The Getting Started section contains all the information you need to configure your board, use the Arduino Software (IDE), and start tinkering with coding and electronics.

WiFi and Arduino IoT Cloud

Arduino have made connecting to a WiFi network as easy as getting an LED to blink.

You can get your board to connect to any kind of existing WiFi network, or use it to create your own Arduino Access Point. The specific set of examples we provide for the MKR WiFi 1010 can be consulted at the WiFiNINA library reference page.

It is also possible to connect your board to different Cloud services, Arduino's own among others. Here some examples on how to get the MKR WiFi 1010 to connect to:

  • Arduino's own IoT Cloud: Arduino's IoT Cloud is a simple and fast way to ensure secure communication for all of your connected Things. Check it out here
  • Blynk: a simple project from our community connecting to Blynk to operate your board from a phone with little code
  • IFTTT: see an in-depth case of building a smart plug connected to IFTTT
  • AWS IoT Core: we made this example on how to connect to Amazon Web Services
  • Azure: visit this github repository explaining how to connect a temperature sensor to Azure's Cloud
  • Firebase: you want to connect to Google's Firebase, this Arduino library will show you how

Bluetooth® and BLE

The communications chipset on the MKR WiFi 1010 can be both a BLE and Bluetooth® client and host device. Something pretty unique in the world of microcontroller platforms.

If you want to see how easy it is to create a Bluetooth® central or a peripheral device, explore the examples at the ArduinoBLE library.

Battery Power

Its USB port can be used to supply power (5V) to the board. It has a Li-Po charging circuit that allows the Arduino MKR WiFi 1010 to run on battery power or an external 5-volt source, charging the Li-Po battery while running on external power. Switching from one source to the other is performed automatically.
