The TC45 is a wireless module that combines the successful Siemens wireless module platform with the standardised open software platform of Java.
The TC45 with GPRS and Java means a new generation of modules has entered the market, and applications now have far more possibilities, while development times are reduced.
The Dual-Band GSM/GPRS module TC45 features an ultra-low profile and low-power consumption for data, voice, SMS and fax. It is thus ideally designed for telematic and telemetry applications. It allows users to run their specific application software on the module sharing the internal resources of the module for controller, memory and general-purpose I/O ports. It is fully type approved according to R&TTE and GCF.
Based on the powerful J2ME, which is a hardware independent Java standard for mobile equipment, the TC45 enables easy integration of application software. With the PC emulator and a debug environment, developers can create their specific application software and test it in a kind of sandbox model before downloading the software into the module. The use of the integrated TCP/IP protocol stack of the cellular engine enables troublefree Internet access. This gives the opportunity to update application software either over the air (OTA) or via serial interface.
Sharing internal components such as the controller and memory of the module cuts development costs further. Up to nine freely-programmable general-purpose I/O pins (GPIOs) open the opportunity to process external data or to execute commands on the device side.
The TC45 comes packaged with Java technology included, a PC-based emulator with debug environment, and in addition, a helpful library of software routines for GSM/GPRS communication as well as simple samples of typical software applications that help accelerate the design process.
