Semtech, a Global Leader in IoT Technologies and Connectivity

Semtech is a leading global player in high-performance semiconductors and connectivity solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT). The company designs innovative technologies that enable billions of devices to connect reliably, securely, and with low power consumption, across both terrestrial and satellite networks.

Semtech is notably the originator of LoRa® technology, which has become a global standard for long-range, low-power communications, widely adopted in sectors such as:

logistics and transportation,
smart agriculture,
smart cities,
industry,
asset tracking and critical infrastructure management.

Thanks to its recognized expertise, Semtech supports IoT manufacturers and integrators in developing robust, scalable, and deployment-ready connected solutions.

The Semtech LR1110 Solution: A Hybrid Terrestrial and Satellite IoT Chip

The LR1110 from Semtech is a next-generation LoRa Edge™ chip designed to meet the needs of IoT applications requiring global connectivity, geolocation, and ultra-low power consumption.

Through a strategic partnership with Kinéis, the LR1110 enables both satellite and terrestrial IoT connectivity to be integrated into a single chip, without the need to add any additional electronic module.

What the LR1110 Brings to IoT Users

By combining Semtech technology with Kinéis space connectivity, the LR1110 enables IoT stakeholders to:

Deploy connected devices with worldwide coverage, without relying solely on terrestrial networks,
Reduce hardware and energy costs thanks to a single-chip solution and very low power consumption,
Simplify IoT product integration and industrialization,
Accelerate time-to-market by leveraging proven standards,
Create new use cases in logistics, asset tracking, environmental monitoring, security, and smart agriculture.

Thanks to the reference designs provided by Kinéis, Semtech partners can easily access satellite connectivity and design hybrid terrestrial-satellite devices compatible with multiple standard protocols.

Hybrid, Simple, and Universal Connectivity

The LR1110 solution offers:

Terrestrial LoRaWAN® connectivity when ground networks are available,
Kinéis satellite IoT connectivity to ensure data transmission anywhere in the world, including remote or off-grid areas,
Advanced geolocation capabilities, combining GNSS and radio signals, for accurate indoor and outdoor positioning.

This hybrid approach guarantees full service continuity, which is essential for critical use cases and mobile connected devices.
