WiFi 6 click - MikroElektonika Documentation Page 1 of 2 WiFi 6 click From MikroElektonika Documentation WiFi 6 click is a mikroBUS™ add-on board with Bluegiga's WF121-A self-contained Wi-Fi module. With a fully integrated radio and 32-bit microcontroller, this module is ideal for embedded applications. WiFi 6 click The module's 2.4GHz band radio is fully compliant with IEEE 802.11b/g/n and offers excellent radio performance. Allows end user applications to be embedded onto the integrated PIC32MX695H, a 32-bit 80MHz microcontroller with 128KB RAM and 512KB Flash memory, for development of lower-cost and smaller sized products. Also integrated on-board is a single power supply. WiFi 6 click communicates with the target MCU through the mikroBUS™ UART (TX, RX), SPI, or IC2, with additional functionality provided by CTS pin (in place of default mikroBUS™ INT pin); a mikroProg connector allows to update the firmware of the internal PIC32. SPI interface can be accessed by jumpers on the click board. The board is designed to use a 3.3 power supply only. Features and usage notes ◾ The integrated firmware provides Wi-Fi and networking stack services (TCP/IP, UDP, DHCP, DNS). ◾ BGAPI host protocol for modem like usage. ◾ BGScript scripting language or native C-development for self-contained applications. ◾ On-board 32-bit embedded PIC32MX695H 80MHz, 128kB RAM and 512kB Flash memory MCU. ◾ TX Power: +17dBm ◾ RX Sensitivity: -97 dBm ◾ Automatically powers on RF circuitry only when needed for power saving functionality. Schematic also available in PDF ◾ PIC32-series 32-bit MCU on module can reach a (http://docs.mikroe.com/File:WiFi_6_click_schematic performance of 125 DMIPS while keeping low power consumption. ◾ Bluetooth coexistence system allows co-located WiFi and Bluetooth devices to be aware of each other, WF121-A supports sharing the integrated antenna or antenna connector with a Bluetooth device through the BT_RF pad. ◾ I2C, SPI and UART interfaces. ◾ mikroProg connections for updating firmware for the on-board PIC32.
