nRF9160 SiP
The nRF9160 is a low power SiP integrating a dedicated
application processor and a multimode LTE-M and NB-IoT
modem. It is the most compact cellular IoT (cIoT) solution on the
market, measuring just 10x16x1 mm.
The application processor includes a 64 MHz ARM Cortex-M33
CPU with 1 MB of flash and 256 KB of RAM dedicated for the
application. It has ARM TrustZone for trusted execution and ARM
CryptoCell for application layer security. It has a wide range of
interfaces to communicate with sensors and actuators.
The multimode modem supports the eDRX and PSM power saving
modes and the coverage enhancement features of LTE-M and
NB-IoT, and has GPS integrated. The global RF front end supports
bands from 700 MHz to 2.2 GHz, has 23 dBM output power and
offers a single pin 50 Ω antenna interface
nRF Connect SDK
nRF Connect SDK is our software development kit for cellular IoT.
It integrates the Zephyr RTOS, and a wide range of examples,
application protocols, libraries and hardware drivers. Everything
needed to get started with cellular IoT development.
It is publicly hosted on GitHub and offers version control management
with Git. It supports the SEGGER Embedded Studio IDE free
of charge.
