About the eDRX function

Semtech's 5G LPWA module: HL7900 uses Altair Semiconductor's ALT1350 chipset, which consumes up to one-fifth the power of the ALT1250.

We are measuring current consumption on a live network and analyzing the current consumption waveform during eDRX. For details, please visit the following link.
