How to Use CMWX1ZZABZ-078

Smart metering (gas and water flow meters), Internet of Things sensor nodes, wearables, and Machine to Machine (M2M) communications are all used for the Murata LPWAN  module. The CMWX1ZZABZ-078  module has an operating temperature range of -40  to +85  °C thanks to an integrated  TCXO  crystal oscillator and is currently under development for a number of LoRaWANTM and Sigfox applications, including deploying sensor nodes in remote and unpredictable situations.

Lora and Sigfox are low-power wide-area network protocols (LPWANs) for applications that require long-range communications with low data rates — in non-urban situations, a range of up to 15 kilometres is achievable. The protocols' normal output power is + 14dBm and + 13dBm, respectively, with the LoRa range being extended by a power amplifier boost function to increase RF output to + 20dBm for long-range applications or those where the end-device is located in a weak signal location indoors.
