TNS010i is designed specifically to hide the complexities of TCP/IP protocol from your embedded design. The availability of it’s user friendly commands reduces your learning curve and ensures the shortest design cycle and the fastest time to market.
- No need network protocol skill
- No need JAVA or any specific computer language
- No need an expensive compiler
- work with your favorite programming language
- No need to re-write programming code even when you change to a different GPRS modem
- work with any 8/16 or 32 bit MCU.
- Low components counts and LOW PRICE

GPRS background :Unlike conventional wireline connection, GPRS offers superior benefits including;

1. GPRS is pay-per-data NOT pay-per-on-line time so you can leave it always on-line with no timing charge.

2. extremely cheap data cost ( example : 0.0006US$ - 0.00125 US$/ KB)

3. Lower monthly cost . (some service providers offer no monthly cost)

4. 100% mobility. Yes… it’s wireless.

TNS010i makes GPRS data communication hardware and software extremely easy.
Applications include:
1. On-line vending machine
2. On-line GPS tracking unit
3. On-line POS.
4. On-line remote monitoring unit
and many more ………

Easy setup for hardware & software configurations
Hardware : 3 caps, 1 Resistor and 1 crystal !!!
Software : 1-2 simple AT commands / action

The GPRS ‘s modem needs TCP/IP stack to complete it’s client feature. But most of them have not come with TCP/IP stack. Even they had…their procedure are full of long series dazzling commands and also the length of sending data are limited to few bytes. but with TNS010i you can send extra long data in one time (1 K bytes). that 's mean you can speed up the communication time and reduce the data cost.

Another advantage of TNS100i is when you have to change the GPRS modem to other brands you have to study that new GPRS's behavior and all of it's commands and then re-write your code to match with it. but with TNS010i you can match all GPRS brands without changing your code.

Following is the comparison between TNS010i and some GPRS with built in TCP/IP stack to request for an HTTP session.
