Virtual Wireless Discovery Days 20th + 27th of Jan 2021

Join us for a journey into Wireless Technologies. On two days in January, we will  host a virtual event for free to discuss major technologies in the wireless arena from short range to long range.

IoT and the demand for more flexibility in work places, production lines or mobile connected devices are increasing the need for wireless connectivity and all the available technologies from short range to long range.

During our two Wireless Discovery Days, we would like to give you an update on the latest wireless technology and enable you to choose the right solution for your use cases.

15:10 Q&A and Event wrap-up

In the final session of the day, we will answer the questions you submitted during the day, and give a short summary of on the wireless technologies presented.

January 27th: Wireless Day 2

Time Topic
10:30 Welcome & Introduction
10:45
Microchip: Proven High Performance and Secured Wireless Connectivity
In this challenging environment, many applications in medical, smart building, infrastructure and mobility require trusted secure execution with maximum integration and efficiency. In this presentation, we will demonstrate, through several use cases, how high performance and highly secure wireless solutions can make a significant difference in protecting your industrial IoT applications.
11:20
Maxim Integrated:Leading the Way in Ultra-Low Power GPS
One of the biggest challenges in adding GPS capability to battery powered devices such as vehicle trackers, asset trackers or IoT sensors is the shortened battery life. Increasing the size of the battery for longer runtime is, in almost all cases, not an option as this would increase the size, the weight, and the cost of the wearable. This presentation will explain the snapshot GPS technology, which along with intelligent power management, extends the battery life of the IoT device 10 fold. Further, some of the protection devices required by vehicle powered trackers will be discussed.
11.55 STMicroelectronics: Dual-core, multi-protocol wireless STM32WB microcontrollers, supporting Bluetooth® LE, Zigbee®, Thread® connectivity. Now also available as a module

This presentation will provide a comprehensive review of the STM32WB family with its latest introductions of value line, smaller flash size, added stack functionalities, module and more exciting news.

12:25 LUNCH BREAK
13:30 Nordic Semiconductor: How nRF9160 enables cellular IoT asset tracking

Tracking valuables has never been easier. With the emergence of low power cellular technology like LTE-M and smart GPS solutions it’s easier than ever to make small and power efficient tracking solutions that can last for months or even years on small batteries. In this presentation, we’ll introduce you to the nRF9160, an all-in-one, single chip solution for cellular asset tracking.

14:05 BICS & Avnet Silica: How to use Cellular Connectivity to accelerate your IOT project
