PingPong Datasheet
Product Description
The Round Solutions PingPong is a modular IoT Hardware
Platform for Firmware Developers. The platform supports
extension boards that add unlimited capabilities. It can
be used to easily make physical devices connect to the
web. It’s literally plug, push and play.
PingPong comes with both wired and wireless
connectivity. The device is available in two open-source
SW versions: The RTOS version running in C/C++ and
the Linux version for even more functionality and
applications. Both versions come with the world’s fastest
32-bit microcontroller by Microchip. PingPong base circuit
boards also have a high speed Telit cellular module, a
high accuracy positioning component for the Global
Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), Ethernet, USB,
CANBUS among other items. The Evaluation Kit comes
with a dedicated M2M/IoT SIM card and connectivity to a
cloud platform.

Modular Concept
The base circuit board can be extended by one or more
extension boards like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, I/O, Iridium
Satellite communication, Radio Frequency, NFC/RFID
and Camera interface boards. It is a Plug’n’Play Solution
that works, as soon as the extension board is plugged
onto the base board. Through hardware extensions, as
well as customised firmware variants, the PingPong can
be used for a wide range of IoT/M2M applications, e.g.
a sensor reading device, an asset tracking, a router, a
metering/telemetry device and security surveillance
devices to name a few.
Key Benefits
• Easy to integrate with other devices & sensors using
USB HS, UART, Ethernet and user definable GPIOs

and computing devices with ultra-compact design and
extended operating temperature range
• Combines high-speed wireless connectivity with
embedded multi-constellation high-sensitivity
positioning GPS + GLONASS receiver
• Internet friendly with integrated TCP/IP and UDP/IP
stacks
• Simple drop-in migration and technology design reuse
path to 2G, 3G and 4G² with any Telit xE910 cellular
module

dditional Services
Round Solutions also offers open source Firmware
and Software for the PingPong board which enables
S/W developers to promptly develop custom firmware
for the device thus speeding up the time to market. The
collected data can easily be sent to an IoT Cloud,
offering many ways for tools to monitor, visualise,
remotely maintain and control the PingPong board.
The graphical user interface of the IoT Cloud is
available through any web browser or mobile through
smartphones and tablets.
With the m2mAIR SIM cards the stable data transfer
between PingPong and the Cloud is guaranteed. Through
automatically Roaming in both home country and
international, it’s always network active with the best
performance.
So PingPong can be used in nearly all industries such as
industrial automation, food industry, automotive,
chemical, consumer goods, security and so on…
