Ameya360:Renesas to Bolster Low-Power WAN Product Line with NB-IoT-Capable Wireless Module

　　Renesas Electronics Corporation, a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, is expanding its low-power WAN product line as part of its strategy to deliver connectivity devices used for smart cities, smart homes, medical devices and industrial applications.       The new RYZ024A supports Cat-M1 and NB-IoT (Narrowband Internet of Things) internet connectivity without the need for a gateway and consumes just 1A (microamp) while in power savings mode, significantly less than competing products. The RYZ024A supports extended discontinuous reception (eDRX) and has an extended voltage range from 2.2V to 5.5V which makes it ideal for battery-powered applications. Renesas announced the details of the new product at electronica, Munich, Germany, November 15-18, 2022.　　Similar to its predecessor, the RYZ014A module, the RYZ024A offers seamless Cat-M1 wireless connection capability, but the new module adds the option to integrate NB-IoT. While Cat-M1 and NB-IoT are both Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies, NB-IoT uses only a portion of the available spectrum, making it more power efficient and therefore extending the operational life of battery-powered systems. NB-IoT also offers excellent coverage depth, including underground and in enclosed spaces. The module provides two power amplifier output levels: 20dBm (decibel-milliwatts) and 23dBm, ensuring coverage at the cellular network’s edge as well as deep indoor environments.　　The RYZ024A is being developed in collaboration with Sequans, a leader in cellular IoT technology, and will be fully tested and certified to work with all major radio frequency regulatory specifications defined by organizations such as the Global Certification Forum (GFC) and the PCS Type Certification Review Board (PTCRB). The certification ensures compliance with complex RF regulatory and carrier-specific requirements so that engineers can immediately start building IoT systems for leading carriers in North America, Asia Pacific and Europe.　　“Cellular LTE-M and NB-IoT categories are now the de-facto wireless standards for connecting low-power IoT devices with global network coverage,” said Georges Karam, CEO of Sequans. “Renesas’ second-generation wireless module based on our Monarch 2 platform offers a certified hardware and software combination with all of the advanced features needed to accelerate the implementation of wireless IoT systems around the world.”　　Renesas will provide all the tools and software that engineers need to design IoT-ready, power sensitive systems based on the RYZ024A, including an evaluation kit, a software stack and RF certifications. Compared to conventional chipset-based designs, designing in the RYZ024A module will reduce the PCB size by 60 percent and cut development time by up to 90 percent, since the product offers full hardware and software support to integrate the RA or RX family of MCUs.　　“Renesas has been aggressively expanding its connectivity portfolio with strategic partnerships and acquisitions for the past five years,” said Roger Wendelken, Senior Vice President in Renesas’ IoT and Infrastructure Business Unit. “The RYZ024A is a great example of our expansive connectivity solution offerings that complement our broad range of embedded microcontrollers and microprocessors to deliver performance, scalability and exceptional reliability.”

NB-IoT Raises its Volume at MWC

　　SAN JOSE, Calif. — The Narrowband-IoT version of LTE for the Internet of Things took a big leap forward this week at the Mobile World Congress with reports of new chips, software, and service offerings. NB-IoT is predicted to take the lion’s share of cellular IoT connections over the next few years, growing in parallel with LTE M1 and a host of non-cellular, long-range nets led by LoRa.　　Sequans Communications announced its first chip optimized for NB-IoT, leapfrogging Qualcomm. Startup Riot Micro teamed up with a software developer to show a dual-mode (NB-IoT/LTE M1) network, and Qorvo rounded out its portfolio of low-band RF chips for all low-power wide-area networks.　　LPWANs will be the world’s fastest-growing connectivity technology through 2025, supporting 4 billion IoT devices by that date, according to market watcher ABI Research. For its part, Qorvo said that it saw 20% growth in the market for low-band products in 2017.　　China Mobile reported at MWC that it has launched NB-IoT networks in 346 cities using chipsets from five companies — Huawei, Mediatek, Qualcomm, RDA, and ZTE. The carrier has approved for use on its network 15 NB-IoT modules using the chips, according to a report from TechInsights analysts at the event.　　Goodix, a chip vendor in China known for touchscreen controllers and fingerprint sensors, announced that it will sell NB-IoT chips, using IP from its acquisition of Germany’s CommSolid GmbH. It showed a live demo of its technology on the Vodafone network in Barcelona, said TechInsights.　　Separately, Cisco reported on trials with China Unicom of an NB-IoT management system, the Cisco Jasper Control Center for NB-IoT. It helps automate control for a wide range of applications from agriculture and building automation to smart metering, parking, fire control, and street lighting.　　“We expect to have more than 100 million NB-IoT connections on our network by 2020,” said Xiaotian Chen, general manager of China Unicom’s IoT group, speaking in a Cisco press statement.　　China’s other major carrier, China Telecom, gave an update on its aggressive deployments of NB-IoT at a U.S. version of the MWC event last year. The three China carriers are racing to carry out government mandates to deploy cellular IoT.　　For its part, Sequans announced its Monarch N, a single chip optimized for LTE Cat NB1/NB2, compliant with 3GPP release 14/15. The company claims that it significantly reduces size and cost compared to its existing dual-mode chip but gave no details other than that it enables modules smaller than 10 mm2.　　Sequans said that Monarch N targets markets such as industrial sensors and utility meters. The chip got praise from Verizon for possible use in its guard-band deployments.　　“Sequans is a leader in LTE for IoT, and their Monarch technology was instrumental in the launch of our LTE Cat M1 network,” said Chris Schmidt, an executive director at Verizon, side-stepping the question of whether the carrier will use the NB-IoT version.　　Startup Riot Micro debuted in December its NB-IoT-only chip that draws milliamps to microamps of power and could sell for well below the industry’s target of a $5 module. At MWC, it partnered with telecom software vendor Amarisoft to demo a dual-mode network using the Riot RM1000 chip and Amarisoft’s Amari LTE 100 software, presumably running on an x86 server.　　For its part, Qorvo detailed a portfolio of nine low-band RF chips for any type of IoT network.　　The Qorvo parts span bands from 50 to 4,200 MHz. They include transmit linear amplifiers, gain blocks, variable gain amplifiers, attenuators, switches, filters, duplexers, and low-noise amplifiers, optimized for low power and small size.

Startup Takes NB-IoT to New Lows

　　Move over, Qualcomm and Sequans. In the limbo dance of the Internet of Things, a startup comes out of stealth mode today, taking cellular networking to new lows in power and price.　　Riot Micro is sampling a modem tailored for the latest 4G IoT standards. It claims that its RM1000 chip draws milliamps to microamps of power and could sell for well below the industry’s target of a $5 module.　　Carriers around the world are just starting to turn on various flavors of LTE-based cellular IoT networks. They aim to leapfrog an emerging crop of emerging low-power wide-area networks such as LoRa, Sigfox, 802.11ah Wi-Fi, and others.　　The Riot Micro chip is designed to handle both the Narrowband IoT and LTE Cat M1 (aka eMTC) standards. “The modems are very, very similar with a lot of commonalities between the two; and they don’t run simultaneously, it’s one or the other,” said Peter Wong, chief executive of the startup.　　Rather than implement baseband functions in software on a DSP, Riot carved fast Fourier transforms and baseband filters into its physical layer block. Separately, it stripped an LTE protocol stack down to just the essentials needed for the IoT specs.　　The result is a 55-nm TSMC chip that processes NB-IoT and Cat M1 using a 26-MHz ARM M0 controller, Mbytes of embedded SRAM, and new PLLs. Competing chips tend to use a controller running at greater than 100 MHz and using as much as 16 Mbytes of RAM, often some of it external.　　The slow clock rate lets Riot use low-dropout regulators for power management in place of more expensive DC/DC converters that competitors need to compensate for the noise of faster logic.　　The result is a baseband that draws about 20 milliamps from a 3.7-V battery when handling 23-dBm transmissions. A full chipset that includes a third-party power amp and RFIC draws about 100 milliamps.　　In sleep mode, the part draws less than two microamps. Most of the chip sleeps while code watches a paging channel for signals. Riot claims that the chip has less latency going in and out of sleep mode than rival devices given that it does not have to load DSP code.　　“We think [that] we can bring the cost of cellular close to that of Bluetooth so we can help drive the deployment of the IoT,” said Wong.　　The RM1000 evaluation boards use Skyworks power amps and RFICs from ACP AG of Switzerland. However, they could also work with chips from Qorvo or other suppliers.　　The startup faces two top challenges. Its highly tailored modem means that it does not support fallback to legacy 2/3G and LTE standards that rival chips handle with software on DSP cores.　　As recently as a year ago, Riot considered supporting 2G, “but the requirement seems to have gone away,” said Greg Wynans, vice president of marketing at Riot.　　Now carriers are more interested in hitting new power and price lows with NB-IoT. In addition, some see NB-IoT as part of their transition plan to turning off 2G networks, which were not designed to support massive numbers of IoT nodes, he said.　　The other challenge for Riot is that it’s a newcomer with untested silicon and software. So the startup is testing its chips with base stations and carrier software, aiming for production silicon by June.　　“The downside of a hardware-centric approach is [that] you have to get it right,” said Wong, adding that the company has had working chips for four months. “We don’t have the option of changing firmware on a DSP, so we did a lot of emulation before it went to the field.”　　Rivals such as Qualcomm and Sequans already have M1 and NB-IoT chips going into carrier trials. As volumes ramp, they are expected to field silicon more optimized for the specs, and giants such as Intel and Qualcomm already have the power amps and RFICs that they need in-house.　　“I don’t know if anyone will do hardware-centric design like we have done, but they may use lower power and lower frequency DSPs … and some of them may not have their own protocol stacks,” said Wong.　　For its part, Riot may integrate power amps or RFICs in a next-generation part. However, finding independent sources of IP for those blocks is not easy, and to date, Riot lacks its own analog team.　　The company has raised an undisclosed sum of less than $20 million since it was founded about four years ago. The company initially aimed to sell LTE protocol stacks until Wong joined as CEO three years ago after serving as a tech strategist at LSI.　　“We pivoted hard from IP and algorithm development and retooled the staff to become a semiconductor company,” he said. “We saw [that] others were repurposing LTE modems” for NB-IoT.　　Wong hired an LTE protocol team from Blackberry and Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chip experts from the former Newport Media that had been acquired by Broadcom. The RM1000 comes in an 8 x 8-mm 68-pad QFN package or a 3.5 x 3.2-mm WLCSP.
