Murata and Truphone Collaborate to Enable eSim in Low Power Cellular Modules for IoT
IoT Business News | February 26, 2019
Murata and Truphone have announced an industry changing collaboration to integrate their technologies and services in order to lead innovation in eSIM for Internet of Things (IoT) / Machine-to-Machine (M2M) devices. Using technology from STMicroelectronics and Truphone, Murata has built a low power cellular module for the world of IoT/M2M devices. Murata’s technology has a wide range of IoT applications and delivers a small, low-power cellular module that reduces power consumption—making it ideal for battery-powered devices, lowering the cost of prod3uction, and freeing up space for device makers. The Murata module uses an ST33 M2M eSIM from ST, which offers a fully compliant GSMA solution for M2M remote SIM provisioning. The eSIM comes in a Wafer Level Chip Scale Package (WLCSP), a tiny package that allows the module to be smaller, less obtrusive and better integrated into whatever environment it may be operating in.
