SBR7035/65 for Ultra-Low-power, low-cost LTE UE for NB-IoT and Cat-M

NB-IoT (NB1) and LTE_M (Cat-M1) are two recently added 3GPP standards optimized for IoT applications. These standards reduce the power consumption and the cost of the system to a fraction of other LTE categories (Cat-0 and above) enabling the cellular IoT market.

SaberTek 4th generation LTE transceiver IPs (SBR7035 and SBR7065) provides the optimum solution for IoT applications. SaberTek IPs offers the highest level of integration at lowest silicon area and power consumption.

SBR7040/SBR7020 for Low-power, low-cost LTE UE (Cat-0 to Cat-5)

LTE (4G) and WCDMA (3G) are challenging standards for consumer market. These standards are primarily to support cell-phone applications, however, LTE has been penetrating into other applications such as IoT and machine-to-machine (M2M). Although LTE is usually marketed for its high speed (which usually is not important for IoT applications), however, the following attributes of LTE makes it a great candidate for M2 M applications:

1. Spectral efficiency
2. The possibility to quickly setup the communication channel, send some packeted data, and release the channel
3. Longevity of products due to long support by the operators
4. Support of various usage model

The key for enabling LTE for low-power applications such as IoT is to develop low cost and ultra low power LTE solutions. As the transceiver (TRX) has a large contribution in the total system cost and power consumption, an ultra-low-power LTE TRX specially developed and optimized for IoT application will enable the market.

Sabertek has developed its 3rd generation LTE/3G transceiver IPs (SBR7020 and SBR7040) enabling IoT applications.
