ALT1350 IoT Chip Low Power LTE-M/NB-IoT Chip with 617–2200 MHz Frequency Band for 5G Massive IoT

ALT1350 is the lowest power LTE-M/NB-IoT chipset, designed for the rapidly expanding 5G Massive Internet of Things market. It is the world's first cellular IoT chipset to enable additional unlicensed spectrum communications protocols, as well as satellite connectivity (NTN) in a single chipset.

These capabilities enable faster development, lower power consumption, and smaller size - resulting in reduced costs to optimize use cases and emerging new trends.

Developed to answer the evolving and growing needs of the cellular LPWA IoT market, the SoC features ultra-low power consumption in a variety of modes, including 3GPP PSM and eDRX, which significantly increase the longevity of battery-operated devices.

Its optimized standby mode (eDRX) reduces power consumption by 80% compared to the current generation and by 85% for sending short messages. Overall improvements in the system's power consumption will lead to 4 times longer battery life for a typical device, enabling additional functionalities and use cases with smaller batteries.
