ATWINC1500-MR210PB1140

The ATWINC1500-MR210PB1140 is a RF transceiver module specially designed for low power and low data rate communication protocols such as 802.15.4-2006, IEEE802.15.4g and low-power Wi-Fi (i.e. IEEE802.11b/g/n). It combines both transceiver and digital baseband for the integration, which features low power consumption, long battery life, low cost, slim form factor and robust performance. The communication protocol supported is IEEE802.11 b/g/n technology and uses 2.4GHz ISM band frequency.

ATWINC1500-MR210PB1140 is mainly based on the Cortex-M3 processor core and contains a memory controller and 16KB/8KB SRAM. This module also contains fully integrated RF transceiver, digital baseband and MAC. It also has standard 2.4GHz WiFi antenna, RF power amplifier, RF switch, low noise amplifiers, crystal oscillator and power filter. In addition, it also has an on-board serial debugging interface.

ATWINC1500-MR210PB1140 can be used in numerous applications as it is designed for low power, low data rate communication protocols. It works with various protocols such as ZigBee, 802.15.4-2006, IEEE802.15.4g, low power Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Smart. This module is well suited for building and home automation, healthcare monitoring, building access control, smart energy devices, industrial automation, sports and fitness products.

Working Principle

The working principle of ATWINC1500-MR210PB1140 is through the control of signals through a range of communication protocols. This module uses the IEEE 802.11 b/g/n for the communication of data using the 2.4GHz ISM frequency range. To transmit data, the module uses the physical layer of the IEEE 802.11b/g/n standard to generate a signal pattern. This signal pattern is then received by a receiver. When a receiver receives the signal, the MAC protocol checks the signal and then the baseband processor processes the data based on the protocol. Then the data is again transmitted using the physical layer of the IEEE 802.11 b/g/n standard. Thus the process repeats in this manner.

Apart from the IEEE 802.11 b/g/n standard, ATWINC1500-MR210PB1140 also supports the low-power Wi-Fi (LPS) protocol. This protocol allows the device to go into low power mode by shutting off modules that are not needed for communication. In this way, the device can reduce power consumption and extend battery life.

The ATWINC1500-MR210PB1140 is an ideal communication transceiver module for low power, low data rate communication protocols. It is an excellent choice for building and home automation, healthcare monitoring, building access control, smart energy devices, industrial automation, sports and fitness products. Its robust performance and slim form factor make it an ideal choice for these applications.
