#################################
Overview
********
The Dragino NBSN95 NB-IoT Sensor Node for IoT allows users to develop
applications with NB-IoT connectivity via the Quectel BC95-G.
Dragino NBSN95 enables a wide diversity of applications by exploiting
low-power communication, ARM |reg| Cortex |reg|-M0 core-based
STM32L0 Series features.
This kit provides:
- STM32L072CZ MCU
- Quectel BC95-G NB-IoT
- Expansion connectors:
- PMOD
- Li/SOCI2 Unchargable Battery
- GPIOs exposed via screw terminals on the carrier board
- Housing

Programming and Debugging
*************************
Applications for the ``dragino_nbsn95`` board configuration can be built and
flashed in the usual way (see :ref:`build_an_application` and
:ref:`application_run` for more details).
Flashing
========
Dragino NBSN95 board requires an external debugger.
Flashing an application to Dragino NBSN95
-----------------------------------------
Here is an example for the :ref:`hello_world` application.
Connect the Dragino NBSN95 to a STLinkV2 to your host computer using the USB port, then
run a serial host program to connect with your board. For example:
.. code-block:: console
$ minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0
Then build and flash the application:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
:board: dragino_nbsn95
:goals: build flash
You should see the following message on the console:
.. code-block:: console
$ Hello World! dragino_nbsn95
Debugging
=========
You can debug an application in the usual way. Here is an example for the
:ref:`hello_world` application.
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
:board: dragino_nbsn95
:maybe-skip-config:
