Microchip Technology TWIZ5200 Hoja De Datos

Targeting the Need for Low Power Wireless Connectivity

Wireless communication technologies have been 

commonplace in homes and industry for many years. 

Recent Smart Grid initiatives have created a renewed 

demand for standardized, low power, wireless technology 

in metering, home, business and industrial automation 

markets. As a result, Microchip offers many IEEE 802.11™, 

IEEE 802.15.4™ and ZigBee® standard solutions along with 

our proprietary MiWi™ wireless networking protocol for both 

2.4 GHz and Sub-GHz to address this need.

Microchip has a broad portfolio of Wi-Fi products including 

complete agency-certified 802.11 b/g modules, 802.11 

b/g Wi-Fi transceivers and RF chipset solutions that make 

adding Wi-Fi simple. Our modules include full TCP/IP stacks 

and networking services all in a compact surface mount 

component, saving you development time and testing cost.

Some designers want an easy way to migrate their 

802.15.4 designs to either Wi-Fi or Bluetooth to make them 

accessible from smart phones and tablets or to add Internet 

connectivity. The RNXV series of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth socket 

modules provide agency-certified drop-in connectivity for any 

XBee socket. To simplify designs, the stacks are integrated 

on the module, configured via simple ASCII commands and 

can easily connect to any MCU via a serial interface.
