Microchip Xplained Pro Starter Kit ATWINC1500-XSTK

The ATWINC1500-XSTK XPlained Pro Starter Kit is designed to evaluate the ATWINC1500 IEEE 802.11 b/g/n IoT (Internet of Things) network controller. There are no requirements for external debuggers or programmers due to the XPlained Pro standalone features. Applications include home appliances (cooking, motor control, refrigeration,washing), home entertainment (remote control, video), industrial (human machine interface, instruments, PLC and I/O modules, sensors) and mobile electronics (cameras, mobile phones, portable audio players, portable games consoles, tablets and notebooks). Beneficial characteristics of the XPlained Pro platform are the integration of Atmel Studio, the inclusion of Atmel software framework drivers and demo code and support streaming data.
