E1165
The SX-SDWAG is the first world’s first wireless module that
provides 802.11a/b/g capabilities in an SDIO card form factor.
With a minimum sleep mode power consumption of just 3mA,
the SX-SDWAG is ideal for battery-operated portable devices in
wireless local area network (WLAN) applications in the medical,
weights and measures, transportation and other industries.
provides 802.11a/b/g capabilities in an SDIO card form factor.
With a minimum sleep mode power consumption of just 3mA,
the SX-SDWAG is ideal for battery-operated portable devices in
wireless local area network (WLAN) applications in the medical,
weights and measures, transportation and other industries.
Unlike WLAN SDIO cards that are intended for use in PDAs, the
SX-SDWAG is specifically aimed at OEM applications. It includes
diversity antenna connectors for improved radio reception and
flexibility in antenna selection, and it supports an extended
temperature range of -20 to +80 degrees C. The SX-SDWAG’s
802.11a 5GHz capabilities allow it to be used in enterprise
environments such as hospitals, where interference from 2.4GHz
devices like microwave ovens must be minimized. Silex also
offers driver porting and consulting services for Linux, Windows
CE, and other operating systems, as well as custom hardware
design capabilities.

Measuring just 0.94 x 1.68 x 0.08 inches (24 x 42.7 x 2.1mm), the
SX-SDWAG is slightly longer than a standard SD memory card.
Because it has a standard SDIO form factor, OEMs can use off-
the-shelf SDIO mounting hardware and test equipment to
expedite the development process.
