STS-Node-SG - Advanced Solutions for IoT Connectivity

STS-Node-SG

STS-Node-SG is a Wireless Sensor Node with a Universal Sensor Interface (USI) that allows any sensor to be used and is part of our IoT ecosystem.

Sub-1Ghz technology is becoming one of the chief driving forces behind the Internet of Things (IoT). The main benefits of this technology are:

Low power consumption has always been the predominant feature of the sub 1GHz applications, with new technologies consumption in sleep mode of less than 1uA. The consumption of this device is 5.5mA when receiving and 23.5mA when transmitting at +14dBm (13.4mA at +10dBm). In sleep mode, the consumption is 0.6µA (microamps).

Long Range becomes a reality because, with this new technology, you can reach distances of several kilometers. In addition, by occupying the ISM bands in the wireless spectrum below 1 GHz, this communication avoids the much more crowded band at 2.4 GHz, where Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, ZigBee, and other wireless protocols operate. The sensitivity parameter is -110dBm at data rates of 50 kbps and down to -121dBm when the data rate is 5kbps. Interference from other wireless communications can be overcome with 90dB of blocking. The RF output power levels can reach up to +14dBm. All this ensures robust signaling for long-range communications.
