QUALCOMM TECHNOLOGIES INC.

The single-chip solution, which also includes an ARM Cortex M3 application processor, memory and power management units, enables LTE modules below 100 sq. mm in size. The QCM2290 SoC is an entry-level offering enabling power conservation. It is aimed at industrial handheld, retail POS, and tracking and camera applications. This baseband chipset is pin-to-pin compatible with the QCM4290, which helps customers leverage hardware and software development across IoT devices.

The 212 LTE IoT Modem is aimed at IoT applications requiring connectivity deep within buildings and low power use. Its chipset architecture allows for low average power consumption, engineered to require less than one micro-amp (1uA) of sleep current. The unit includes a modem baseband and RF transceiver with integrated RF front end, and supports single-mode 3GPP Release 14 Cat. NB2 IoT connectivity, enabling coverage for delay-tolerant applications on RF frequency bands spanning from 700MHz to 2.1GHz.

The QCS4290 incorporates Qualcomm’s Kryo 260 CPU architecture and its third-generation Qualcomm AI Engine in order to offer Wi-Fi 6-ready connectivity. This platform is used for industrial and commercial IoT applications such as industrial handhelds, logistics and warehousing, security panels and cameras.
