Monarch LTE-M/NB-IoT Platform
Monarch8 is a single-chip LTE Cat M1/NB1 solution designed specifically for narrowband IoT applications, including sensors, wearables, and other low data, low power M2M and IoT devices.
Monarch complies with the ultra-low-power and reduced complexity feature requirements of the 3GPP release 13 LTE Advanced Pro standard, defining narrowband, low data rate LTE technology for machine-type-communications. Monarch achieves a very high level of integration whereby baseband, RF transceiver, power management, and RAM memory are integrated into a compact 6.5 x 8.5 mm package, running Sequans’ carrier-proven LTE protocol stack, an OMA lightweight M2M (LWM2M) client for over-the-air device management, and a rich set of AT commands. Support for programmable RF filtering allows a simple, reduced bill of materials (BOM) hardware design that enables a single SKU to support all LTE bands worldwide.
