Texas Instruments CC3130 SimpleLink Wi-Fi Wireless Network Processor

Texas Instruments CC3130 SimpleLink™ Wi-Fi® Wireless Network Processor allows for the connection of any microcontroller (MCU) to the Internet of Things (IoT). The SimpleLink Wi-Fi CC3130 Internet-on-a chip™ device contains an Arm® Cortex®-M3 MCU dedicated to Wi-Fi and internet protocols, to offload networking activities from the host MCU. The subsystem includes an 802.11b/g/n radio, baseband, and MAC with a powerful crypto engine for fast, secure Internet connections with 256-bit encryption and built-in power management for best in class low power performance.

The Wi-Fi CERTIFIED® CC3130 device dramatically simplifies the implementation of low-power, with the integrated Wi-Fi Alliance® IoT low power feature. This generation introduces new capabilities that further simplify the connectivity of things to the internet. These new features include BLUETOOTH® Low Energy and Wi-Fi 2.4GHz radio coexistence (CC13x2/CC26x2), antenna selection, up to 16 concurrent secure sockets, certificate sign request (CSR), and online certificate status protocol (OCSP). They also include Wi-Fi Alliance certified IoT power-saving features (such as BSS max idle, DMS, and proxy ARP), a hostless mode for offloading template packet transmissions, and network-assisted roaming.

The Texas Instruments CC3130 is delivered with a slim and user-friendly host driver to simplify the integration and development of networking applications. The host driver can easily be ported to most platforms and operating systems (OS). The driver has a small memory footprint and can run on 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit microcontrollers with any clock speed (no performance or real-time dependency).
