DEVICE OVERVIEW
The MRF24WG0MA and MRF24WG0MB are lowpower, 2.4 GHz, IEEE 802.11-compliant, surface
mount modules with all associated RF components –
crystal oscillator, bypass and bias passives with integrated MAC, baseband, RF and power amplifier and
built-in hardware support for AES and TKIP (WEP,
WPA, WPA2 security). The modules also provide
acceleration for hosts running WPA-EAP application
security. The integrated module design frees the
designer from RF and antenna design tasks and regulatory compliance testing, ultimately providing quicker
time to market.
The MRF24WG0MA module is approved for use with
the integrated PCB meander antenna.
The MRF24WG0MB module comes with an ultraminiature coaxial connector (U.FL) and is approved
for use with a list of antenna types that are certified
with the module. See Section 2.7 “External
Antenna” for specific recommendations.
The MRF24WG0MA/MB modules are designed to be
used with Microchip’s TCP/IP software stack. The software stack has an integrated driver that implements the
API that is used in the modules for command and control,
and for management and data packet traffic.
1.1
Interface Description
The block diagram in Figure 1-1 represents a
MRF24WG0MA/MB module. It interfaces to Microchip
PIC18, PIC24, dsPIC33 or PIC32 microcontrollers
through a four-wire serial client SPI interface –
interrupt, hibernate, reset, power and ground signals.
The module runs on a single supply voltage of
nominally 3.3V. The serial trace port operates at 3.3V
and requires a level shifter for operation with RS-232
devices. This port provides a serial output of module
status messages and is helpful for debugging
purposes. Figure 1-2 shows a simplified example
connection between a Microchip PIC® MCU and the
module. Table 1-1 lists the pin descriptions.
Data communications with the MRF24WG0MA/MB are
through the SPI interface that is detailed in Section 2.0
“Circuit Description”. The Microchip PIC microcontroller communicates with the module through a command API from within the Microchip TCP/IP stack. The
command API is detailed in the Microchip TCP/IP stack
online Help that is included in the free Microchip
Application Libraries download.
The Microchip TCP/IP software stack is available in the
free Microchip Application Libraries download
(including example applications and source code) from
the Microchip web site, http://www.microchip.com/
wireless.
The combination of the module and a PIC running the
TCP/IP stack results in support for IEEE Standard
802.11 and IP services. For example, this allows the
immediate implementation of a wireless web server
and e-mail clients.
The MRF24WG0MA/MB modules have received regulatory approvals for modular devices in the United
States (FCC), Canada (ISED) and Europe (RED). The
modular approval removes the need for expensive RF
and antenna design, and allows the end user to place
the modules inside a finished product and not require
regulatory testing for an intentional radiator (RF transmitter). See Section 3.0 “Regulatory Approval” for
the specific requirements that should be adhered to by
the integrator.

Signals of Type “I: Constant” must either be constantly driven by the host or have a pull-up or pull-down (in
case the host is likely to tri-state the signal during power down modes). The constant drive is used to
ensure defined operation of the part and to minimize leakage current during low power modes.
WP is used as write-protect for the internal module SPI Flash. For production use, this pin should be
pulled low. This pin can be controlled by the host microcontroller to enable in field Flash updates.
Signals of Type “NC*” were JTAG function pins on previous family devices. Signals on these pins will have
no functional affect and will not impact the operation of this device.
This signal should be left floating or pulled high only to support lowest 802.11PS power mode.

Power-On Sequence
The internal regulators for the digital and analog core
power supplies are disabled by driving the
HIBERNATE pin high. Figure 2-2 shows the power up
sequence for the MRF24WG0MA/MB.
There is an internal Power-on-Reset (POR) circuit
which keeps the module in reset until VDD is within
specification. The Hibernate and Reset signals are also
used to control startup. In Figure 2-2, section A is
controlled by the internal POR and section B is an
FIGURE 2-2:
allowance for the SPI bus to stabilize when the module
supplies are enabled. Once Hibernate is disabled, the
host software provides 1mS of startup to allow the SPI
to stabilize. This time is pre-programmed into the host
driver, and may need to be increased if sufficient initial
drive current is not provided to the MRF24WG0MA/MB
module. Section C is the driver controlled release from
Reset period. This takes approximately 300 mS and is
monitored by the stack driver. No additional time needs
to be provided by user software for startup.

2.3
Power States
2.3.2
The MRF24WG0MA/MB has several power states.
These are Hibernate, Sleep and Active (two substates), as shown in Figure 2-3. The selection of power
state directly affects system behavior, and overall
power consumption or battery life. There is also a
“Stand-by” state that is not user-controlled.
2.3.1
HIBERNATE STATE
An “Off” state is defined as no power applied to the
device. The Hibernate mode is the closest to controlled
off that the module can approach. It is controlled
through the HIBERNATE pin (high input puts the
module into Hibernate). When in Hibernate, the module
only consumes leakage current, but does not maintain
state. Hibernate has to be fully controlled by the PIC
MCU.
The module contains about 70 µF of internal bulk
capacitance. Supplies should be provisioned to supply
sufficient charge on release of hibernate for desired
start time or sufficient delay must be provided in
software after hibernate release and before releasing
reset.
This state provides the best battery life for embedded
products. Entering Hibernate for intervals of less than 1
minute is not likely to save power.
POWER SAVE (PS) MODE
The PS mode is a low-power dynamic state that
automatically implements the 802.11 Power Save
feature. In this mode, if enabled, the module will enter
PS mode when all activity is complete.
The module will wake autonomously to any PIC
intervention so it can check DTIM beacons from the
Access Point. If any traffic is listed as queued for the
module, then it will awake and get the data from the
Access Point on the next possible opportunity. When
data is acquired, the module will interrupt the PIC
microcontroller on a normal “data available” indication.
If no data is available on a DTIM check, the module
reenters the Power Save state until the next DTIM. The
DTIM interval is programmed at the Access Point. This
state can provide “as if on” behavior of the radio with a
significant power savings versus “always on”. The
battery life expectation of this mode is several days to
several weeks. This mode is characterized by a very
low latency (as low as 200 ms) to begin data transfer
from the state.
2.3.3
ACTIVE STATE
The Active state is identified as one of two states where
the radio circuitry is fully on. The two active states are
the Receive state (RX ON) and the Transmit state (TX
ON).
2.3.4
STAND-BY STATE
The Stand-by state is not user-controlled but is noted
as it helps identify and track certain operations of the
module during power tracing.

2.4
Serial Trace Port Interface
The MRF24WG0MA/MB incorporates a Transmit Data
pin (DEBUGTX) and a Receive Data pin (DEBUGRX) for
serial debugging purposes. These pins can be connected to commercially available RS-232 line drivers/
receivers with appropriate external level shifters. The
serial interface operates at 19200 (baud rate), 8 (data), N
(parity), 1 (stop bit), N (flow control).
2.5
SPI Interface
The client Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) is used to
interface with the host PIC microcontroller. The client
SPI interface works with the Interrupt line (INT). When
data is available for the PIC microcontroller during
operation, the INT line is asserted (logic low) by the
MRF24WG0MA/MB module. The INT line is deasserted (logic high) by the MRF24WG0MA/MB after
the data is transferred to the host PIC microcontroller.
The SPI SCK frequency can be up to 25 MHz.
The client SPI interface implements the [CPOL = 0;
CPHA = 0] and [CPOL = 1; CPHA = 1] modes (0 and 3)
of operation. That is, data is clocked in on the first rising
edge of the clock after Chip Select (CS) is asserted.
Data is placed on the bus with most significant bit
(MSb) first.
The CS pin must be toggled with transfer blocks and
cannot be held low permanently. The falling edge of CS
is used to indicate the start of a transfer. The rising
edge of CS is used to indicate the completion of a
transfer.
2.6
PCB Antenna
For the MRF24WG0MA, the PCB antenna is fabricated
on the top copper layer and covered in solder mask.
The layers below the antenna have no copper trace.
It is recommended that the module be mounted on the
edge of the host PCB. It is permitted for PCB material
to be below the antenna structure of the module as long
as no copper traces or planes are on the host PCB in
that area. For best performance, place the module on
the host PCB according to the details shown in
Figure 1-4 in Section 1.0 “Device Overview”.
The antenna patterns shown in the following plots are
simulated results of the PCB antenna. Figure 2-4 illustrates the simulation drawing and Figure 2-5 and
Figure 2-6 illustrate the two-dimensional (2D) and
three-dimensional (3D) radiation patterns.
The calculated average of the radiated field is shown in
Figure 2-5, highlighted in yellow. The radiation pattern
for the XZ plane is shown in red, and the YZ plane is
shown in black. As shown, the most powerful radiation
occurs in the XY plane (the red pattern).
Figure 2-6 shows the relative position of the 3D radiation “donut” with reference to the module orientation.
This is a very useful guide for placement of the module
to obtain the maximum range.
Figure 2-7 shows the 3D radiation pattern with the colored distribution of the radiation magnitude. The values
range from -9 dB to +0.3 dB. This is very useful in
interpreting the 2D radiation pattern.
Figure 4-1 in Section 4.0 “Electrical Characteristics” shows the SPI timing diagram. Table 4-7 details
the SPI timing AC characteristics.

REGULATORY APPROVAL
The MRF24WG0MA/MB module has received
regulatory approvals for modular devices in the United
States and Canada. Modular approval allows the end
user to place the MRF24WG0MA/MB module inside a
finished product and not require regulatory testing for
an intentional radiator (RF transmitter), provided no
changes or modifications are made to the module
circuitry. Changes or modifications could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment. The end
user must comply with all of the instructions provided
by the Grantee, which indicate installation and/or
operating conditions necessary for compliance.
The MRF24WG0MA/MB module has been tested and
conforms to EN 300 328 V1.7.1 (2006-10), European
Standards. The module tests can be applied toward
final product certification and Declaration of Conformity
(DoC). Additional testing may be required depending
on the end application.
The integrator may still be responsible for testing the
end product for any additional compliance
requirements that become necessary with this module
installed (for example, digital device emission, PC
peripheral requirements, etc.) in the specific country
that the end device will be marketed.
For more information on regulatory compliance, refer to
the specific country radio regulations in the following
sections.
3.1
United States

Wi-Fi® Alliance
Wi-Fi Alliance Certification focuses on interoperability
testing of devices based on 802.11 standards.
Historically, when the certification process and
programs were developed by Wi-Fi Alliance members,
the vast majority of the 802.11 clients were PC-centric,
and certification testing adequately addressed those
types of devices. In subsequent years, the number of
Wi-Fi devices that are not PC-centric has grown
significantly.
These non-standard devices, as a class of products,
have been dubbed Application Specific Devices
(ASDs) by the Wi-Fi Alliance. ASDs are 802.11
devices, for example clients or access points (APs),
which cannot be tested under a standard Alliance test
plan because they do not comply with the standard test
configuration and/or because they are designed to
perform a specific application. Examples include, but
are not limited to: bar code scanners, pagers, recording
devices, monitoring equipment, and cable modems.
The APs or clients that are used to validate ASD
compliance (from the standard test bed) will meet all of
the requirements specified in the applicable System
Interoperability Test Plans (referred to as the “standard
test plan”), unless specifically exempted. The
MRF24WG0MA/MB modules are in the ASD category.
The modules are certified under Wi-Fi 802.11 with ASD
Model Test Plan with Test Engine For IEEE 802.11a, b,
and g Devices (Version 1.0).
