About Semtech

Semtech develops semiconductor and connectivity products spanning LoRa radio-frequency technology, cellular Internet of Things modules, sensing, circuit protection, power management and high-speed signal integrity. Its devices are incorporated into industrial, communications, infrastructure and consumer equipment by manufacturers that need low-power data links or supporting electronics. The company supplies chips, reference material and connectivity platforms for integration into finished machines.

Drone exposure is concentrated in the control and telemetry radio layer. The SX1280 and SX1281 transceivers support 2.4 GHz LoRa, FLRC and ranging modes, and are used by ExpressLRS-compatible equipment for responsive long-range links. BETAFPV integrates the SX1281 into the Aquila20 HD FPV kit's remote-control system, while other flight-electronics manufacturers build related Semtech radios into receivers and transmitters. Flight control, video, navigation and aircraft safety remain separate functions of the completed drone system.
