The antenna layout is identical to TI's suggested layout and we're using the same components, trace arrangement, and antenna so the board maintains its FCC emitter compliance (you'll still need to perform FCC validation for a finished product, but the WiFi part is taken care of). Even though it's got an onboard antenna we were pretty surprised at the range, as good as a smartphone's. </span><br /><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The shield

helvetica, sans-serif;">The CC3000 WiFi module from Texas Instruments is a small silver package which finally brings easy-to-use, affordable WiFi functionality to your Arduino projects.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">It uses SPI for communication (not UART!) so you can push data as fast as you want or as slow as you want. It has a proper interrupt system with IRQ pin so you can have asynchronous connections. It supports 802.11b/g, open/WEP/WPA/WPA2 security, TKIP & AES. A built in TCP/IP stack with a "BSD socket" interface supports TCP and UDP in both client and server mode, with up to 4 concurrent socket connections.<br /><br />*The CC3000 does not support "AP" mode, it can connect to an access point but it cannot be an access point.<br /></span> <div class="row-fluid build-text"> <p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The CC3000 is available from Adafruit As a Breakout Board, and as an Arduino Shield. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Both the shield and the breakout board have an onboard 3.3V regulator that can handle the 350mA peak current, and a level shifter to allow 3 or 5V logic level. The antenna layout is identical to TI's suggested layout and we're using the same components, trace arrangement, and antenna so the board maintains its FCC emitter compliance (you'll still need to perform FCC validation for a finished product, but the WiFi part is taken care of). Even though it's got an onboard antenna we were pretty surprised at the range, as good as a smartphone's. </span><br /><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The shield also features a MicroSD socket, and a reset button.</span><br /><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">AND, the shield supports the Arduino SPI passthrough header pins, so it's compatible with the Mega, Leonardo, and Due, right out of the box - no rewiring necessary!  Just solder closed the MISO, SCK, and MOSI jumpers on the back of the shield.</span></p> </div> </div> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Features</h3> <ul> <li><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Max Dimensions: 68.61mm / 2.7" x 53.38mm / 2.1" x 2.87mm / 0.11"</span></li> <li><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Weight: 8.5g</span></li> </ul> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Ships With</h3> <ul> <li>Board</li> </ul> <div id="devtool-required-devtools-section" class="xs-hide"> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-mb1 xs-border-bottom">Required Tools</h3> <div id="devtool-required-devtools-content"></div> </div> <div id="devtool-accessory-devtools-section" class="xs-hide"> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-mb1 xs-border-bottom">Accessory Tools</h3> <div id="devtool-accessory-devtools-content"></div> </div> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Documents</h3> <div class="xs-px2"> <h4 class="xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">User Manual/Guide</h4> <div class="attachment xs-mb3"> <i class="fal fa-file-pdf"></i> <a href="https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/downloads/pdf/adafruit-cc3000-wifi.pdf" target="_blank">Adafruit HUZZAH CC3000 WiFi Shield with Onboard Antenna (pdf)</a> </div> </div> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Downloads</h3> <div class="xs-px2"> <h4 class="xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Design Package</h4> <div class="attachment "> <i class="fal fa-file-code"></i> <a href="https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-CC3000-Breakout-PCB" target="_blank">EagleCAD PCB files for the breakout on GitHub (html)</a> </div> <div class="attachment "> <i class="fal fa-file-code"></i> <a href="https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CC3000_Shield_PCB" target="_blank">EagleCAD PCB files for the shield on GitHub (html)</a> </div> <div class="attachment xs-mb3"> <i class="fal fa-file-code"></i> <a href="https://github.com/adafruit/Fritzing-Library" target="_blank">Fritzing objects available in Adafruit Fritzing library (html)</a> </div> </div> </div> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: cc3000, adafruit huzzah, wifi shield, mcu, daughter_addon_boards, development_platforms_kits, adafruit</div>
