SEQUANS, MICROCHIP, AND NXP SMOOTH DEVELOPERS’ PATHWAY TO MASSIVE CONNECTIVITY (ABI report)

In March 2020, connectivity semiconductor manufacturer Sequans announced strategic collaborations with the Microcontroller Unit (MCU) manufacturers Microchip and NXP. NXP will combine it’s LPC5500 series of MCUs with Sequans’ Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) and LTE-M/NB-IoT communications modules, which are based on Sequans’ own Monarch Cellular IoT (C-IoT) chipsets. Meanwhile, Microchip and Sequans will co-launch a development kit in the third quarter of 2020 that will pair both companies’ semiconductor products, complementing each other’s abilities and making it easier for IoT application developers to design devices that use them in combination. Each collaboration is a mutual promotion strategy to improve the sales of both sets of partners’ products.

Other C-IoT chipset vendors would be wise to seek relationships with high-volume MCU vendors, for the sake of serving the potentially very high-volume sensor-based IoT device market. Monitoring microcontrollers for failure and other critical events provides valuable insight to mitigate potentially expensive or dangerous problems. Similarly, any manufacturer of embedded processors for IoT applications knows the data they enable the collection of must make it to the cloud, so it would be wise to seek to expediate that process for their potential customers. Developers need not become experts in telecommunications and can focus on creating innovative IoT devices. Sequans’ support of massive connectivity with its Monarch-based products, and more traditional data-heavy machine-type communications with its Calliope Cat.1 range, shows a unique level of dedication to the IoT.
