STMicroelectronics and Sigfox Ink Collaboration Agreement to Connect Billions of Devices
A new collaboration agreement inked between the duos states ST to include Sigfox networking software in its embedded software suite for broad range of products tailored to the needs of IoT application developers
STMicroelectronics and Sigfox announced that they are now allies working together to support and accelerate the growing demand for connected devices for a broad range of applications, including supply-chain management, building and equipment maintenance, water and gas metering, security, transportation, agriculture, mining and home automation. STMicroelectronics will include the Sigfox networking software in its development tools that enable developers to bring their LPWAN-based products and solutions to market faster.
STMicroelectronics will now offer the Sigfox networking software as part of ST’s MCU software package, including STM32 tool compatibility to speed customer adoption of Sigfox as a standard low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) for securely connecting physical devices to the Cloud and the IoT.
The collaboration agreement ensures tool compatibility for the industry-leading STM32 family of general-purpose microcontrollers, as well as with STMicroelectronics’ unique portfolio of technologies and products suitable for Sigfox technology. These include the S2-LP, a high performance and ultra-low-power sub-GHz radio transceiver, the highly secure, Sigfox-compatible STSAFE-A1SX secure element, a wide range of motion, environmental, and audio sensors, and power and power-management devices.
