SKY66423-SX1261 Reference Design and
Evaluation Kit Available Now
Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: SWKS) and Semtech Corporation
(Nasdaq: SMTC) today introduced the SKY66423-SX1261 reference
design for low-power wide-area networks (LPWAN). The
SKY66423-SX1261 combines Semtech’s LoRa® Connect™ SX1261
transceiver with Skyworks’ SKY66423 front-end module (FEM)
for use in a variety of industrial and smart city applications.
The proliferation of wireless devices operating in the
industrial, science and medical (ISM) bands contributes to noise
interference and creates reliability challenges for long-range and
power-sensitive applications. By increasing the transmit output
power and reducing the receiver’s system noise figure, the
SKY66423-SX1261 addresses these challenges and provides an
effective solution for industrial IoT deployments using
LoRaWAN®.
The LoRaWAN specification is a Low Power, Wide Area (LPWA)
networking protocol designed to wirelessly connect battery operated
‘things’ to the internet in regional, national or global networks,
and targets key Internet of Things (IoT) requirements such as
bi-directional communication, end-to-end security, mobility and
localization services. LoRa Connect sub-GHz radio transceivers are
ideal for long range wireless applications and are highly
configurable to meet different applications’ requirements utilizing
the global LoRaWAN standard. The SKY66423-SX1261 meets the extended
range and power efficiency needs of security, automation,
industrial, smart city and connected home applications.
“Our long-standing collaboration with Skyworks allowed us to
develop a proven reference design that is compliant with the
LoRaWAN specification to meet the needs of smart home and smart
city applications like security, automation and tracking,” said
Marc Pégulu, vice president and general manager for Semtech’s
Wireless and Sensing Products Group. “The SKY66423-SX1261 readily
addresses the challenges of range coverage and power efficiency for
industrial Internet of Things (IoT) and smart city applications
through harnessing Semtech’s LoRa devices for its robust, long
range capabilities.”
“This latest design uniquely leverages our collective
technologies in support of next-generation LPWAN deployments,” said
Stefan Fulga, senior director of marketing for IoT and Emerging
Markets at Skyworks. “Our strategic collaboration continues to
produce innovative solutions that fuel our portfolio expansion
across industrial IoT, smart city and smart home applications.”
