TICC3235MODASM2MONR
Overview
The CC3235MODASM2MONR is a dual-band Wi-Fi module from Texas Instruments that integrates an Arm Cortex-M4 microcontroller with a dedicated network processor. This SimpleLink module supports 802.11a/b/g/n on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands and includes an integrated trace antenna to simplify RF design. It features 256KB of RAM and comprehensive hardware-based security features, making it a robust solution for connected IoT applications.
Why Choose This Part
The primary advantage is the dual-band capability (2.4GHz and 5GHz), which provides better reliability in crowded wireless environments. Its 'Internet-on-a-chip' architecture offloads the entire networking stack to a dedicated processor, freeing up the 80MHz MCU for application code. Additionally, the integrated trace antenna and built-in oscillator reduce the total bill of materials and PCB layout complexity.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Developers should use the CC3235MODSF125EVM or LAUNCHXL-CC3235SF development kits for initial prototyping. Software development is supported by the SimpleLink SDK, which includes drivers, Wi-Fi stacks, and security libraries for use with TI's Code Composer Studio, IAR, or GCC toolchains. Debugging is facilitated through the onboard JTAG or SWD interfaces.
