As a founding member of the LoRa Alliance, Semtech is committed to supporting the organization’s mission to promote global adoption of the LoRaWAN open standard by ensuring interoperability of all LoRaWAN products and technologies. The rapidly growing association consists of nearly 500 member companies including telecommunication companies, equipment manufacturers, system integrators, sensor manufacturers, entrepreneurial start-ups and semiconductor companies from around the globe.
The Association for Smarter Homes & Buildings (ASHB) is a leading international, not-for-profit industry organization promoting advanced technologies in homes and buildings since 1988.
The organization is supported by an international membership of nearly 400 companies involved in the design, manufacture, installation and retailing of products relating to home automation and building automation. Public organizations, including utilities and government are also members. ASHB's mandate includes providing its members with networking and market research opportunities. ASHB also encourages the development of industry standards and protocols, and leads cross-industry initiatives.
As a Gold Board Member of ASHB, Semtech supports companies developing and implementing smart building solutions based on LoRa devices and the LoRaWAN protocol.
The DLMS UA is a non-profit organization founded in 1997 by leading utilities and meter manufacturers to develop and support a standard for smart meter data exchange. First published as IEC 62056 and EN 13757-1 in 2002, that specifies the COSEM data model and the DLMS application layer that can be used for all energy types and with virtually any communication media. Thanks to its evolutiveness, efficiency and security, it has been adopted by many countries and projects worldwide. Today, the DLMS UA is a global organization with 300+ members from all continents and 60+ countries involving utilities, meter manufacturers, system developers, integrators, and chip manufacturers. The DLMS UA provides compliance certification of devices implementing DLMS.
Semtech is an adopter member of DLMS UA.
ETSI provides members with an open and inclusive environment to support the development, ratification, and testing of globally applicable standards for ICT systems and services across all sectors of industry and society. We are a non-profit body, with more than 900 member organizations worldwide, drawn from over 60 countries and five continents. The members comprise a diversified pool of large and small private companies, research entities, academia, government, and public organizations. ETSI is officially recognized by the EU as a European Standardization Organization (ESO).
Semtech is a member of ETSI.
The Euridis Association promotes the use of standard protocols like DLMS over LoRaWAN. Our members are manufacturers, utilities and software companies. Our field of expertise : the energy sector (TSO, DSO, …). Several technical committees have been created since 2003 to manage the evolution of standards like the IEC62056-3-1. Focus on Metering at the beginning, the association covers now all IoT opportunities (Network monitoring, Fault Detection, …).
By joining Euridis, Semtech brings its expertise of the LoRa devices and the LoRaWAN protocol to the association’s members.
The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency for information and communication technologies – ICTs. Founded in 1865 to facilitate international connectivity in communications networks, we allocate global radio spectrum and satellite orbits, develop the technical standards that ensure networks and technologies seamlessly interconnect, and strive to improve access to ICTs to underserved communities worldwide. Every time you make a phonecall via the mobile, access the Internet or send an email, you are benefitting from the work of ITU.
Semtech is a sector member of the ITU-T, the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector.
