Mini Socket iWiFi™ is a secure serial-to-Wireless LAN device server module that also acts as a bridge to connect serial devices to 802.11b/g wireless LANs. It includes the iChip™ CO2128 IP Communication Controller™ chip to act as a WiFi controller for the Marvell 88W8686 WiFi chipset. It is packaged in RoHS-compliant compact form factor and uses a standard pin-out.
Mini Socket iWiFi offers much more than many other device servers on the market. It acts as a firewall, providing a security gap between the application and the network; supports up to 10 simultaneous TCP/UDP sockets; two listening sockets; a web server with two websites; SMTP and POP3 clients; MIME attachments; FTP and Telnet clients, and SerialNet™ mode for serial-to-IP bridging.
Mini Socket iWiFi supports the SSL3/TLS1 protocol for secure sockets, HTTPS and FTPS, WEP, WPA and WPA2 WiFi encryption. It's compact size and multiple power-save modes make it an ideal module for mobile, battery operated wireless embedded devices.
Mini Socket iWiFi minimizes the time need to design the host device hardware. It easily inserts into headers on the host PCB and connects to an external antenna. Minimal or no software configuration is needed for Mini Socket iWiFi to access the wireless LAN.
Connect One’s high-level AT+i™ API eliminates the need to add WiFi drivers, security and networking protocols and tasks to the host application. The AT+i SerialNET™ operating mode offers a true plug-and-play mode that eliminates any changes to the host application.
Mini Socket iWiFi firmware - the IP stack, Internet applications and Internet configuration parameters - are stored in an external flash memory. The module is power-efficient: the core operates at 1.2V while I/Os operate at 3.3V. Power Save mode further reduces power consumption.
