Telit designed Charlie to provide all of the key features and capabilities necessary to leverage Arduino and LTE:
- The Telit ME310 module, based on the Qualcomm 9205 LTE modem, provides full coverage of NB-IoT and Cat M1 LTE bands, as well as fallback to 2G in those areas where the new technologies are not fully deployed yet.
- The microprocessor is compatible with the Arduino Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and easily programmable through Arduino libraries.
- The board’s Arduino MKR form factor lets developers use a wide variety of Arduino shields.
- The ultra-low-power Bosch Sensortec BMA400 acceleration sensor and Qualcomm Technologies’ ultra-low power Qualcomm 9205 LTE modem, are both ideal for applications such as asset tracking.
- The ceramic GNSS antenna with low-noise amplifier (LNA) enables location-based applications.
- A battery charger, USB access and cellular antenna connector provide additional design flexibility, capabilities and efficiency.
“Reliable and ubiquitous geographic IoT connectivity enables a widespread deployment of low power, battery-operated sensor functions. At Bosch Sensortec we are thrilled to partner with Telit on the Charlie design,” said Marcellino Gemelli, head of business development, Bosch Sensortec. “This will make it easier for our customers to integrate our sensors in their innovative wireless connected solutions.”
