- LoRa® Corecell reference design for indoor gateway applications
accelerates time-to-market
- The reference design reduces power consumption by up to one
tenth the power of legacy products while enabling small form factor
designs
Semtech Corporation (Nasdaq: SMTC), a leading supplier of high
performance analog and mixed-signal semiconductors and advanced
algorithms, announced the general availability of the LoRa®
Corecell reference design for indoor gateway applications. The
reference design is developed to the LoRaWAN protocol and targeted
for home, building and factory automations.

“The LoRa Corecell reference design’s key features, including
low power, smaller package and higher integration with improved
performance, aim to eliminate design complexity and accelerate
time-to-market in the smart home and building industries,” said
Pedro Pachuca, Director of IoT for Semtech’s Wireless and Sensing
Products Group. “As we announced earlier this year, Semtech is
committed to developing a LoRa product roadmap that simplifies
Internet of Things (IoT) applications that enable a faster
time-to-market for IoT solution providers and systems integrators.
This new reference design is key to our LoRa offerings as more real
estate and commercial managers, as well as consumers, look for
solutions that solve their daily challenges, such as meeting room
occupancy and temperature/humidity monitoring.”
The LoRa Corecell reference design provides the “minimum
optimized solution” to build a gateway application, which is
represented in the name, “core” and “cell.” The reference design is
comprised of two new integrated circuits (ICs), LoRa-based gateway
baseband transceiver (SX1302) and the low power multi-band Sub-GHz
RF Front End (SX1250), enabling customers to deploy cost-effective
indoor gateway solutions. The ICs are designed to dramatically
reduce power consumption up to one tenth the power of legacy
products, enabling power constrained USB-based gateways and mobile
battery operated gateways. The new products allow for bill of
materials (BOM) cost reduction, provide a small package form factor
while increasing performance based on a larger number of modulators
and demodulators. In addition, spreading factor five and spreading
factor six were added to support higher data rates, reducing time
on air and power consumption.
