MRF24WN0MA PICtail™/PICtail Plus Daughter Board
Information Sheet
Overview
The MRF24WN0MA PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board is a development and
demonstration board for evaluating Wi-Fi
®
connectivity using PIC
®
microcontrollers and
the MRF24WN0MA module.
Features
• MRF24WN0MA Wi-Fi module with 802.11n connectivity
• Daughter board supports PICtail and PICtail Plus connectors.
Getting Started
To get started, an Explorer 16 or PIC32 Starter Kit with PIC32 I/O Expansion board can
be used. Alternatively, PIC32 MEB2 board can be used. Please make sure to select the
PIC32 with sufficient flash and RAM memory to be able to run the TCP/IP stack and your
application. With the appropriate hardware available, download Microchip TCP/IP Stack
and follow the Getting Started chapter of the TCP/IP Stack Help.
TCP/IP Stack and Firmware
The Microchip TCP/IP stack and other firmware examples can be downloaded with the
MPLAB
®
Harmony framework at www.microchip.com/harmony. Support for the
MRF24WN0MA PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board is in the TCP/IP Stack version 1.06
and later. After installation, a link to the TCP/IP Stack Help is available in the Start Menu.

Wireless Router Configuration
The Microchip TCP/IP stack examples are written to interface to a wireless router with
the following configuration:
SSID: MicrochipDemoAP
Channel: 1, 6, or 11
Security: Disabled
This configuration can be changed by use of MPLAB Harmony Configurator (MHC).
