MICROCHIP WINCS02UE-I/100 Wi-Fi Module, U.FL Connector, Network Controller, 2.4 GHz, I2C, PTA, SPI, UART, WINCS02 Series

WINCS02UE-I/100 is a Wi-Fi network controller module with U.FL connector for external antenna. The WINCS02 is a fully-integrated module based on WINCS02IC. It contains all necessary external components and antenna to simplify a new board design. The module is interoperable with various vendors' 802.11 b/g/n access points. The module has a compact form factor of 21.7 mm x 17.3 mm x 2.1 mm. The WINCS02IC is a low power consuming IC containing a 2.4GHz IEEE® 802.11b/g/n-compliant radio with integrated High Power Amplifier (HPA), Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), Radio Frequency (RF) switches for TX/RX control and hardware-based security accelerator. The WINCS02IC is designed to execute Microchip-provided Wi-Fi® and Networking stack components accessible through a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI).
