Microchip has added 802.11 wireless communications to its product portfolio with the support of the ZeroG Wireless Wi‐Fi I/O product family. Microchip along with ZeroG has created a ZeroG Wi-Fi PICtail development board that adds 802.11 capabilities to Microchip’s development platforms for the PIC18, PIC24, PIC32, and dsPIC family of microcontrollers. The PICtail development board consists of the ZeroG ZG2100M FCC and Wi-Fi certified module.

The ZeroG Wi‐Fi PICtail allows designers to quickly create a direct connection to the Internet by seamlessly connecting to standard 802.11b/g access points. In managing the connection, the ZeroG ZG2100M module controls the MAC and baseband layers and is connected to the host MCU via an SPI port. The 8/16/32 bit Microchip MCU that resides on the microchip development board, controls the TCP/IP networking stack and runs the system application.

Features

• FCC, IC, and ETSI Certified providing considerable cost savings and quick time to market
• Compatible with PIC18, PIC24, PIC32 and dsPIC microcontrollers
• IEEE 802.11b compliant wireless solution
• ZG2100MCC2A small footprint module integrated antenna, MAC, Baseband, RF and power amplifier
• ZG2100MCC2A module is FCC, IC, Wi-Fi certified, and ROHS, CE and ETSI compliant, providing considerable cost savings and quick time-to-market
• License Free TCP/IP stack supporting standard suite of Internet Protocols
• Supports WEP, WPA, and WPA2 security protocols
