MIKROE WiFi PLUS Click

The MIKROE WiFi PLUS click is a super - compact and efficient solution for integrating WiFi communication into your project. It features the MRF24WB0MA module from Microchip, a 2.4GHz, IEEE 802.11 - compliant RF transceiver with an integrated PCB antenna that can reach up to 400m. Alongside it is the MCW1001A companion chip with an on - board TCP/IP stack and 802.11 connection manager, simplifying wireless network connections. This click runs on a 3.3V power supply and communicates with the target MCU via an UART interface. The MRF24WB0MA has low - power consumption modes, using only 250 µA in sleep mode and 0.1 µA in hibernate mode. Key features include compatibility with IEEE 802.11b/g/n networks, GPIO and UART interfaces, and mikroBUS™ compatibility. Available documents are schematic, MRF24WB0MA and MCW1001A datasheets, WiFi Click Boards Guide, and Libstock.

Using the MIKROE WiFi PLUS Click is easy. First, connect it to your project's target MCU through the UART interface. Make sure to provide a 3.3V power supply to keep it running. When it comes to sending and receiving data, the MCW1001A companion chip simplifies the process with its socket - based method. Keep in mind that the range of the integrated PCB antenna can reach up to 400m, but environmental factors might affect it. Regarding power consumption, if you want to save power, switch it to sleep or hibernate mode. For maintenance, avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures and humidity. Regularly check the connections to ensure they are stable. If you need more technical details, refer to the available datasheets and guides.
