Semtech Expands LoRaWAN® Reach in SMB and Smart Home

New one-channel hub reference design and evaluation kit based on Semtech’s high-performance LoRa® transceivers. Enables cost-effective, smaller scale LoRaWAN® infrastructure deployments.

Semtech Corporation, a high-performance semiconductor, IoT systems, and cloud connectivity service provider, today announced availability of its one-channel LoRaWAN hub reference design and evaluation kit targeting smaller scale network deployments such as for SMB/SME and smart home applications.

Recent insights from Omdia predict LoRaWAN to have the greatest annual growth, at 30% over the 2023–30 forecast period. “It is a comparatively recent technology finding a niche in longer-distance, lower-power applications like irrigation systems and security sensors for property perimeters. As a sub-GHz protocol, it also has advantages in multi-unit installations. It penetrates glass, steel, and concrete easily, giving it a significant advantage,” noted Omdia Senior Research Director, Edward Wilford. “The cost effectiveness of Semtech’s one-channel hub aligns well with such smaller-scale applications.”

“LoRaWAN continues to be a transformative industry catalyst for a more sustainable future,” said Olivier Beaujard, a board member, officer of the board and chairman of regulatory affairs for the LoRa Alliance, as well as senior director, LoRa ecosystem for Semtech. “Supported by a thriving LoRaWAN ecosystem, Semtech’s one-channel hub reference design unlocks new use cases and opportunities for adoption in new markets that stand to benefit from LoRa’s long-range, low-power capabilities.”

“LoRa is already a well-known WAN technology, especially for battery-powered IoT sensors that are in remote outdoor locations or deep indoors without Wi-Fi or cellular coverage, and which require extended battery life,” said Robert Comanescu, marketing and applications head for IoT chips for Semtech.

“Semtech’s new one-channel hub reference design offers OEMs a simple, cost-effective, and secure path to bring LoRa into the home for various applications such as security, insurance claim mitigation, environmental monitoring, and more.”
