The Cypress BCM943364WCD1_EVB kit includes a BCM43364 SIP module seated on a full-featured, USB-based development and evaluation board that is fully compatible with the Cypress WICED Wi-Fi software development kit (SDK). The onboard SIP module leverages the BCM943364WCD1 Wi-Fi device that provides a 2.4 GHz, WLAN, IEEE 802.11b/g/n MAC/baseband/radio.
This SIP module integrates a power amplifier (PA) that meets the output power requirements of most handheld systems, a low-noise amplifier (LNA) for best-in-class receiver sensitivity, and an internal transmit/receive (iTR) RF switch, further reducing the overall solution cost and printed circuit board (PCB) area. The BCM943364WCD1_EVB also includes an on-board, STM32F411, 32-bit ARM® microcontroller and is provisioned to support the authentication chip utilized by Apple’s HomeKit offering.
This self-contained evaluation and debug kit can be powered from a wired USB (+5 V) connection or a 5 V DC power supply (not provided). The USB interface also enumerates as both a USB-JTAG (program and debug) and USB-UART (serial command interface). The BCM943364WCD1_EVB has an optional external Flash for memory expansion.
