Check this product’s supported frequencies in the description/specs. - If you intend to operate outside shared/licence‑exempt conditions (e.g. in other bands, at higher power, with high‑gain antennas, or extended duty cycles), you must have the appropriate authorisation. **For use in other regions** - Follow the spectrum rules for your country/region and select frequencies and settings accordingly. A declaration of use will need to be submitted during checkout. ## How to buy - **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE10040:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE10040:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description The Particle T SoM LTE-M IoT tracking module delivers advanced asset tracking capabilities through seamless integration of GNSS positioning, CAN Bus connectivity, and the powerful Nordic nRF52840 MCU. This sophisticated System-on-Module forms the foundation for developing comprehensive tracking solutions while providing immediate platform access for up to 100 devices. **Key Features** - LTE-M connectivity optimised for North America with 50% improved power efficiency compared to 3G - High-precision GNSS positioning with u-blox eo M8U dead-reckoning (1.8m CEP50 accuracy) - Nordic Semiconductor nRF52840 SoC featuring 64MHz ARM Cortex-M4F processor - Integrated CAN Bus controller and transceiver for vehicle integration - 8MB Flash storage with POSIX file system for data logging - Built-in power management with LiPo charging capabilities - Wi-Fi location services via onboard ESP32 **Technical Specifications** - Processor: Nordic nRF52840 with 1MB flash, 256KB RAM - Cellular: Quectel BG96 LTE-M module with Power Save Mode and eDRX - Positioning: u-blox eo M8U GNSS + Wi-Fi positioning - Interfaces: 1x SPI, 1x I2C, 1x UART, up to 6x GPIO - Power Features: Integrated PMIC, fuel gauge, and battery management - Form Factor: Castellated edge design for reliable manufacturing **Installation** Implementation begins with connecting the module to your custom carrier board via the castellated edge connections. The design requires pairing with appropriate antennas - the [ANTCW2TY antenna](https://core-electronics.com.au/catalog/product/view/sku/ANTCW2TY) is recommended for optimal performance. For development purposes, the module can be integrated with the [Particle M-SoM Dual WiFi/Cellular IoT Module](https://core-electronics.com.au/catalog/product/view/sku/CE010018) development board to accelerate prototyping. **What's in the Box** - 1x Particle T SoM LTE-M North America module - Documentation for integration and setup **Compatibility** - North American LTE-M networks - Particle Device Cloud platform - Standard 3.7V LiPo batteries - CAN Bus enabled vehicles and machinery **Additional Resources** - Comprehensive technical documentation via Particle's documentation portal - Detailed datasheet with pinouts and electrical specifications - Integration guides and example applications **About Particle** Particle is a leading provider of professional-grade IoT solutions, specialising in enterprise-level hardware and cloud platforms.
