The Mini-Z® WLAN 28-Pin Module Reference Design is a stand-alone 802.11 b/g TCP/IP Wireless Networking
module that is produced in a 28-pin Dual Inline Pin package. The Mini-Z WLAN 28-Pin Module integrates Zilog's powerful ZNEO microcontroller with a Roving Networks 2.4 GHz RN-171 802.11 b/g WiFly LAN Module.
Designed for the hobbyist, student and engineer to quickly develop prototypes, proof of concept and demonstrations as well as provide the functionality required for hands-on learning, the Module is designed to be pin-compatible with other vendors' basic stamp modules. This flexibility allows you to utilize different vendor’s base boards that you may already have in your arsenal.
Mini-Z WLAN 28-Pin Module Features
- Powerful 16-bit CISC microcontroller
- 128 KB of Flash program space with 16-bit access and in-circuit programming
- 4 KB internal RAM with 16 bit access
- 24-bit address space
- 24-bit stack with overflow protection
- Direct register-to-register architecture, allows each memory address to function as an accumulator. This improves execution time and decreases the required program memory
- 5.5 V to 15 V input with internal 5 V and 3.3 V regulation
- 4-channel, 10-bit ADC
- Analog Comparator
- Internal Precision Oscillator
- I2C Master/Slave Controller
- Enhanced Serial Peripheral Interface (ESPI)
- Three standard 16-bit timers with capture, compare and PWM capability
- 12-bit PWM module with three complementary pairs, or six independent PWM outputs, with deadband generation and fault trip input
- 24 interrupts with programmable priority
- Watchdog Timer with Internal RC Oscillator
- On-Chip Debugger
- Voltage Brown-Out protection (VBO)
- Power-On Reset (POR)
- Low Power modes
Networking Support
- Secure wireless authentication
- WEP-128
- WPA-PSK(TKIP)
- WPA2-PSK (AES)
- Built in networking applications:
- DHCP – UDP
- DNS – ARP
- ICMP – TCP
- HTML client
- 802.11 power save and roaming functions including intelligent built-in power management with programmable wake-up
- Software-controlled transmit power (0 dBm to 12 dBm) for ultra-low power applications
This Module ships preprogrammed with a boot loader and a control shell and is fully compatible with the ZDS II for ZNEO tools suite, which is available as a free download in the Zilog Store.
