Product Information
Product Description
Designed for use in Internet of Things (IoT), mobile, and wearable electronics applications, the wireless ESP8266EX chip is a highly integrated, low-power Wi-Fi solution. It provides extremely low-power consumption and occupies minimal PCB area. Clock speed can reach a maximum of 160 MHz.
The minimal wake up time feature can be utilized by mobile device SOCs. This allows them to remain in low-power standby mode until Wi-Fi is needed.
Highly integrated, this compact chip has
- 32-bit Tensilica processor
- Standard digital peripheral interfaces
- antenna switches
- RF balun
- Power amplifier
- Low noise amplifier
- Power management modules
With the 32-bit low power micro-controller (MCU) and 17 GPIO pins, this EXP8266 Wi-Fi chip is often integrated with external sensors and other application-specific devices. It can host an application or offload 802.11 Wi-Fi networking functions from another application processor.
Examples of major applications include:
- Home automation
- Smart lights and plugs
- Home appliances
- IP cameras
- Baby monitors
- Sensor networks
- Security ID tags
- Mesh networks
- Industrial wireless control
- Wearable electronics
- Wi-Fi location-aware devices
- Wi-Fi position system beacons
Features
- 802.11 b/g/n
- Wide operating temperature range
- Integrated low power 32-bit MCU
- Integrated 10-bit ADC
- Integrated TCP/IP protocol stack
- Integrated TR switch, balun, LNA, power amplifier and matching network
- Integrated PLL, regulators and power management units
- WiFi 2.4 GHz supports security protocols WPA/WPA2
- Supports antenna diversity
- Supports Station / SoftAP / Station+SoftAP operation modes
- Supports Smart Link Function for both Android and iOS devices
- FCC, CE, TELEC, WiFi Alliance and SRRC certified
