Design solution for IoT application

Kweku Addae-Mensah
Prodigy 10 points


Exploring a potential device design for a client with the following top-level requirements.

  1. Must have Bluetooth connectivity.
  2. Must have LTE-M connectivity.
  3. Must have GPS connectivity.
  4. Size:-  about the diameter of a US quarter( ~25mm) and thickness about 3 quarters stacked together

 Does TI have any suggestions on how this can be achieved? Potential Chip sets (SoC, SiP, modules etc) that can be used.

    Hi Kweku,

    Without being an expert in most of the standards in question: TI does not offer GPS or LTE-M connectivity solutions, so you would consider using an TI ARM-based processor as a host connected to a TI BLE product and third-party GPS/LTE-M products.  Given the sizes of these products and the antennas required to support the varying frequency of each standard, the overall solution will require more space than the area of a US quarter (462 mm2).
