Introduction | Silex technology SX-550 guide

Chapter 1: Introduction

The SX-550 WLAN Module provides a complete solution for integrating networking technology into a product. It includes an embedded processor, auto-sensing 10baseT/100baseTX Ethernet MAC/PHY, wireless chipset and embedded operating system with a full networking stack and drivers. The wireless high speed network interface conforms to the IEEE 802.11a, b, g, and h protocols. The radio is based on Conexant’s PRISM WorldRadio chipset.

The module consists of two printed circuit boards measuring 44.60 mm by 59.70 mm. One card contains the processor and memory and the second card contains the 802.11abg wireless LAN radio, as shown in Figure 1. In addition, the module supports dual diversity antennas and intelligent power control.
