u-blox announced the TOBY-L4 series of Automotive Grade telematics modules. The series integrates LTE, UMTS and GSM connectivity with a powerful embedded processor, enabling a wide range of applications on a single device. Connectivity is at the heart of the TOBY-L4 LTE Cat 6 modules, providing full gateway capabilities in a single device capable of delivering up to 300Mbit/s data rates with carrier aggregation capability. Its extremely small 248-pin Land Grid Array format measuring just 24.8mm by 35.6mm by 2.6mm meets the size/weight/power limitations of in-car applications. TOBY-L4 supports both voice and data in the form of LTE, UMTS/DC-HSPA+, GSM, SMS and Voice (VoLTE and CSFB). With support for eCall (operating also at +95°C for at least 2 minutes) and ERA Glonass, the module meets all the industry and carrier requirements in place and is future-proofed for all automotive OEM's key regions. With 19000 DMIPS and hardware virtualization, the processor in TOBY-L4 is powerful enough to safely and flexibly support Linux/Yocto distribution, enabling customer's software applications to run securely alongside a wide range of pre-integrated communications protocols on the same device, enabling full application scalability without fear of hitting processor performance bottlenecks. Security is a critical feature in any connected device and the new series addresses this through the integration of secure boot and update features, supported by a hardware cryptography accelerator and true random number generator. A dedicated trusted execution environment provides further security for system software and OEM applications. Thanks to its embedded processor and comprehensive range of interfaces including R(G)MII and analog audio, TOBY-L4 removes the need for an additional processor and additional components in many applications, saving space, power and cost. Manufactured in ISO/TS 16949 certified sites, the modules are qualified to ISO 16750 covering systems installed in vehicles, making it ideal for automotive OEMs.
