IoT cellular SoC cuts power, provides 5G and satellite connectivity
The ALT1350 from Sony Semiconductor Israel also provides LPWA and 2.4 GHz connectivity and LTE-M/NB-IoT protocols.
iSIM puts carrier information deep inside a device
While eSIM moves carrier information from external cards to internal devices, iSIM moves the SIM down to the chipset. That reduces size and cost.
5G LPWA ALT1350 chipset boasts ultra-low power consumption
The ALT1350 is the world’s first cellular LTE-M/NB-IoT solution to enable additional LPWA communication protocols, as well as satellite connectivity (NTN), in a single chipset, opening the door to further innovation in the connected world. The ALT1350 by Sony is the most advanced cellular IoT solution on the market, with an architecture that resolves IoT […]
