ATWINC15x0-MR210xB IEEE 802.11 b/g/n SmartConnect
IoT Module
Introduction
The ATWINC15x0-MR210xB is a low power consumption 802.11 b/g/n IoT (Internet of Things)
module,specifically optimized for low power IoT applications. The module integrates Power Amplifier (PA),
Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA), Switch, Power Management, and a printed antenna or a micro co-ax (u.FL)
connector for an external antenna resulting in a small form factor (21.7 x 14.7 x 2.1 mm) design. It is
interoperable with various vendors 802.11 b/g/n access points. This module provides SPI ports to
interface with a host controller.
