Microchip Technology ATWINC1500-XSTK Xplained Pro Wi-Fi Network Controller Evaluation Kit

Technical description of the product (ATWINC1500-XSTK):

The ATWINC1500-XSTK Xplained Pro starter kit is a hardware platform for evaluating the ATWINC1500 low-cost, low-power 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi network controller module. Supported by the Atmel Studio integrated development platform, the kit provides easy access to the features of the ATWINC1500 and demonstrates how to integrate the device into a custom design. The Xplained Pro series of evaluation kits includes an on-board Embedded Debugger, eliminating the need for external tools to program or debug the SAMD21 host MCU that drives the ATWINC1500. Xplained Pro extension kits offer additional peripherals to expand the board's features and simplify the development of custom designs. Features: ATWINC1500 module mounted on ATWINC1500 Xplained Pro Extension. ATSAMD21-XPRO host MCU board for driving the ATWINC1500 Xplained Pro Extension. I/O1 Xplained Pro for sensor and SD-card input to the host MCU. Embedded debugger (EDBG) for programming the SAMD21 host MCU. Virtual COM-port interface to the host MCU via UART. Wired firmware updates for the ATWINC1500 module via a virtual COM-port interface. Data Gateway Interface (DGI) to the host MCU via SPI and TWI. ATECC108 CryptoAuthentication device connected to the host MCU. Two extension headers. Three possible power sources: External power, Target USB. 32KHz crystal. 16MHz crystal. Supported with application examples through Atmel gallery.
