MCHPATWINC1500-MR210UB1954
Overview
The ATWINC1500-MR210UB1954 is a low-power IoT network controller module optimized for adding 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi connectivity to embedded systems. It features an integrated 32-bit Cortus APS3 processor, a full TCP/IP protocol stack, and 512KB of flash memory to offload networking tasks from a host microcontroller. This specific variant includes a U.FL connector for an external antenna and a chip antenna, providing flexible RF design options.
Why Choose This Part
It significantly reduces host MCU overhead by handling the entire network stack including DHCP, ARP, and TCP/UDP sockets on-module. The module offers superior sensitivity of -95dBm and high output power of 18.5dBm, ensuring a robust wireless link in challenging environments.
