Ultra96v2 Wi-Fi certification

mindaugas

Hello everyone,

 

We have developed end product in which we are using Ultra96v2 board. Currently we are trying to certificate our product. In order to complete Wi-Fi tests in lab we need to be able to set Ultra96v2 Wi-Fi module (ATWILC3000) in TX only mode and later in RX only mode, we also need to be able to select working channel and mode.

 

Has anyone faced same issue? Maybe someone has example code or tips how can we achieve this through linux?

 

We tried using USB to UART adapter with Microchip MCHPRT2 software by connecting adapter directly to ATWILC3000 with wires. MCHPRT2 software gives us error that it cannot connect to Wi-Fi module. This method is also very inconvenient.

 

Thank you

    We opened support ticket on Microchip website and got some answers. We misunderstood module datasheet. The module can not be connected directly to MCHPRT2 software with USB to UART adapter. The only two methods to do this are:

    1. Via I2C interface using Aardvark USB TO I2C hardware tool.

    2. Via UART interface using serial bridge firmware on the host MCU (MCHPRT2 Tool <--> UART <--> Host MCU <--> SPI Interface <--> WiFi device/module.
