At NextPCB, we are committed to accelerating innovation and empowering developers to turn their ideas into reality. That's why we launched the NextPCB Accelerator campaign, a unique sponsorship initiative aimed at supporting the next wave of IoT innovators.

We are excited to announce that we are now sponsoring designs based on the SIM7600 series from SIMCom Wireless Solutions, a global leader in IoT and M2M communication technologies. Known for its robust LTE connectivity and advanced features, the SIM7600 series is a trusted choice for developers creating cutting-edge IoT solutions.

By partnering with SIMCom, we aim to empower developers to build smarter, more connected applications that drive the future of technology. Join us in shaping the next generation of IoT innovation!

Why the SIM7600 Series from SIMCom?

The SIM7600 series by SIMCom is a compact, high-performance LTE module designed for IoT applications. Supporting 4G LTE Cat 4, 2G/3G fallback, and GNSS, it ensures global connectivity and precise location tracking. With interfaces like UART, USB, SPI, and GPIOs, its highly versatile for diverse designs. Features like low power consumption, FOTA updates, and robust performance make it ideal for industrial automation, vehicle tracking, and smart devices. Reliable, cost-effective, and scalable, the SIM7600 is your go-to solution for next-gen IoT innovations.

In this NextPCB Accelerator campaign, NextPCB welcomes designs using SIMCom SIM7600 modules with free PCBA prototypes and subsidized pricing.

What's Included in the Program?

• Free Prototyping Support: Get 2 free PCBA units, including PCB fabrication, components, assembly, and worldwide shipping (valued up to USD $500). 
• Competitive Bulk Pricing: Benefit from pre-arranged, subsidized pricing from NextPCB that's significantly lower than market rates when you have your boards manufactured and assembled with NextPCB.
• Comprehensive Technical Support: Get expert assistance with manufacturing engineering, design guidance, certification, and production.
• Personalized Assistance: Receive dedicated one-on-one support throughout your manufacturing journey.

Who Can Participate?

While we prioritize business projects, we welcome hobbyist designs that contribute to the open-source community and showcase interesting applications using SIM7600 modules. All submissions must be original - publicly available designs are not eligible for sponsorship.

Please note that all design documents must be approved by SIMCom to qualify for sponsorship.

Campaign participants can only take advantage of one NextPCB Accelerator sponsorship per month.
