The RN-XVee module supports infrastructure networking for worldwide

internet access directly by every node and AdHoc connectivity for fully

connected point to point networks, unlike many 802.15.4 implementa-

tions that need extensive, custom network application proles and ad-

ditional bridging products. The RN-XVee supports industrial temperature

ranges, making it ideal for applications such as sensor networks, industrial

or commercial controllers, utility meters and M2M applications.

The RN-XVee module is built upon Roving’s RN-171 ultra-low power

802.11 b/g technology, which boasts a complete onboard TCP/IP stack

nected state the module consumes only 35mA and its congurable output

power allows for an optimized TX power consumption. The RN-XVee pins

can be congured for digital GPIO or analog inputs. The analog inputs

provide 14-bit A to D converter resolution while the GPIO can be cong-

ured to signal a host microcontroller to simplify the interface between the

Wi-Fi module and host controller and further reduce system wake times.

The module complete with onboard stack is available in low quantities for

only $34.95 USD and is offered with step pricing for volume orders.

• Direct internet connectivity

• Full 802.11 b/g data rate support

RN-XVee Wi-Fi Module

Provides drop in, certied Wi-Fi connectivity for existing

systems currently using 802.15.4 modules.

FEATURES

The RN-XVee module by Roving Networks provides drop-in, certied

Wi-Fi™ connectivity for existing systems using 802.15.4 modules.

The pin compatible footprint and simple ASCII conguration interface

allows designers to quickly have the RN-XVee module up and running

in existing 802.15.4 based products.
