Mouser Electronics is now shipping the new Thingy:91 X Prototyping Platform from Nordic Semiconductor. The Thingy:91 X is an easy-to-use, battery-operated prototyping platform for cellular Internet of Things (IoT) proof-of-concept (PoC) demos and initial cellular IoT device development for applications such as logistics, asset tracking, smart city, predictive maintenance, industrial and wearables.
The Nordic Semiconductor Thingy:91 X, available from Mouser, is designed to address the needs of emerging low-power cellular IoT applications utilising Nordic’s nRF9151 cellular IoT system-in-package (SiP) with an integrated Arm Cortex-M33 CPU and Arm TrustZone and CryptoCell security technology, which supports LTE-M, NB-IoT, GNSS, and NR+ certified for global operation.
The Thingy:91 X platform from Nordic also comes preloaded with an asset-tracking application and a comprehensive set of sensors that monitor environmental conditions and movement, enhancing its utility in various IoT applications. The Thingy:91 X includes multiple digital and analog interfaces and peripherals for many design possibilities, including expansion options through a debug board connector and an expansion board connector compatible with Qwiic, STEMMA QT, and Grove systems.
The Thingy:91 X Prototyping Platform comes with all necessary modem firmware, RTOS, application software examples, and hardware reference designs to implement a full cellular IoT design. The Thingy:91 X features two user-programmable buttons for user input, with user-programmable RGB LEDs for output, along with a Nano/4FF SIM card slot, supporting (e)SIM, and bundled Onomondo and Wireless Logic SIM cards preloaded with data to connect to nRF Cloud out-of-the-box. The package also includes a 1350mAh rechargeable Li-Po battery to facilitate prototype field testing.
