Description

The Atmel® WINC1500 is a single chip IEEE® 802.11 b/g/n RF, IoT (Internet of Things) Network Controller SoC. The WINC1500 most advanced mode is a single stream 1x1 802.11n mode providing up to 72Mbps PHY throughput. The WINC1500 features fully integrated Power Amplifier, LNA, Switch and Power Management. Implemented in 65nm CMOS technology, the WINC1500 offers very low power consumption while simultaneously providing high performance and optimized bill of material.
