Description
The RN-XV-EK is an evaluation platform for the RN-
XV module. The board connects to a PC via the
standard USB cable, and provides 2 pushbutton
switches to control WPS mode and to reset the
module. The board has connectors to drop in the RN-
XV, as well as headers that allow wires access to the
RN-XV signals.
Based on a pseudo standard footprint often found in
embedded applications, the RN-XV is a 802.11 b/g
solution for designers who want to migrate their
existing 802.15.4 architecture to a more standard
TCP/IP-based platform without redesigning their
existing hardware.
The RN-XV module is based on Roving Networks'
robust RN-171 Wi-Fi module and incorporates an
802.11 b/g radio, a 32-bit SPARC processor, a
TCP/TP stack, a real-time clock, a crypto accelerator,
power management unit, and an analog sensor
interface. The module is pre-loaded with firmware to
simplify integration and minimize applications
development time.
