LR2022 and LR2012 extend the LoRa Plus family to serve multiple IoT deployment types, from cost-optimized sub-GHz sensors to global multi-band NTN – all using fourth-generation LoRa IP
Semtech Corporation announced the expansion of its LoRa Plus family with the introduction of the LR2022 and LR2012 transceivers, both now available in production.
The two new devices extend the LoRa Plus family to address a full range of IoT application requirements – from sub-GHz deployments to multi-band global tracking with satellite connectivity – bringing the LoRa Plus portfolio to three production-ready transceivers.
The LR2022 and LR2012 share the same fourth-generation LoRa IP core as the LR2021, offering backward compatibility with LoRaWAN, LR-FHSS and legacy OOK devices. The devices feature radio performance with best-in-class sensitivity with extended data rates up to 125 Kbps for LoRa and 2 Mbps for FSK applications. This throughput enables high-speed burst data transmissions within a low-power envelope – supporting large file transfers including images, audio, and firmware-update-over-the-air (FUOTA) updates. The devices also support use cases requiring very low latency in proprietary wireless protocols.
“With the LR2022 and LR2012 now in production, there is a LoRa Plus chip for multiple IoT applications – from sub-GHz sensor nodes to global multi-band trackers with satellite connectivity to edge AI devices supporting multiple wireless protocols,” said Shahar Feldman, senior product marketing director of wireless ICs at Semtech. “These devices share the same fourth-generation LoRa IP platform and Unified Software Platform, backed by a global ecosystem of more than 500 million deployed LoRa devices.”
