Semtech and Amazon collaborate to provide low power connectivity
Summary
“Semtech’s LoRa is a proven IoT solution that supports a long range, Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) platform and meets Amazon Sidewalk’s goal of providing the network support needed to connect a broad range of low power home devices or sensors. According to IHS Markit, the global smart home market is expected to grow by a factor of five to reach more than $192bn in 2023, a rapid increase from the $41bn in revenues in 2018. Several current networks for smart devices in the home, including Bluetooth and WiFi, are limited in connectivity and range. Cellular (e.g. 5G) is needed for mission critical, long distance, guaranteed delivery of data, but can be too costly and power hungry for battery operated devices. With LoRa and Amazon Sidewalk, customers will have access to smart home solutions that work out of the box with extended connectivity and battery life.
