WAB-GW-GS1011MIP

T BRIEF PRODUC T BR IEF - PR ELIMINAR Y Serial to Wi-Fi® Adapter Board PRODUCT OVERVIEW The Serial to Wi-Fi Adapter Boards provide the means to evaluate the capabilities of GainSpan’s low power Wi-Fi modules and the Serial to Wi-Fi embedded software, and develop Wi-Fi enabled devices using Renesas microcontrollers. They are designed to plug into Renesas Development Kits (RDK) through the Application Header Interface or the PMOD interface. WIFI-ADAPTER BOARD DETAILS: Feature Description Radio Protocol IEEE 802.11b for WAB-GW-GS1011MIP IEEE 802.11b/g/n for WAB-GW-GS1500M The WAB-GS1011-MIP supports IEEE 802.11b protocol and includes a GainSpan GS1011MIP soldered down module RF Module GS1011MIP or GS1500M RF Output Power (Typical) 8 dBm for GS1011MIP 14 dBm (802.11b) 12dBm (802.11n) for GS1500M The WAB-GS-1500M supports IEEE 802.11b/g/n protocols and includes a GainSpan GS1500M soldered down module Radio Frequency 2.4 – 2.497 GHz Antenna Type On-board PCB Trace I/O Port SPI or UART Jumper To select UART or SPI Current measurement mode Switch Factory Code Restore Interfaces/ Connectors Factory Application Header Interface, PMOD interface Power Source From Renesas RDK or PMOD Dimensions (in) TBD The Wi-Fi adapter boards are available in two configurations:   The Wi-Fi adapter boards come with pre-loaded serial to Wi-Fi firmware that supports an embedded HTTP server with Wi-Fi and IP network configuration pages, as well as the limited AP capability for ease of provisioning. The Serial to Wi-Fi embedded software allows devices and appliances manufacturers to easily add Wi-Fi capabilities to their products with minor impact on the host microcontroller firmware. Drivers are available or in development for most Renesas microcontrollers including RL78, RX62, RX63, R8C, V850, SuperH, 78K0, 78K0R. The drivers have a small footprint so they can be used with IAR Embedded Workbench-Kickstart Edition.
