TTPCom Ltd, the world’s leading independent supplier of digital wireless technology, today launches the ITM420 quad-band EDGE module. The 47mm x 35mm x 3.3mm module is based on TTPCom’s world leading EDGE technology and is suitable for embedding into a range of products, including Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), laptops, wireless desk phones and various machine to machine (M2M) applications.

The ITM420 module provides all of the functionality required by network operators including quad-band operation (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz), EDGE class 10 and support for HR, FR, EFR and AMR speech codecs. The module also includes hardware support for USB 2.0 full speed, Bluetooth and GPS.
