The purpose of this document is to provide details regarding the setup and use of the TiWi-SL module on an EM board. This document covers a description of the EM board and its features and a brief tutorial on how to operate the module EM board.
The TiWi-SL EM “Evaluation Module” Board is an evaluation platform for the LS Research TiWi-SL 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi module. Communication between the TiWi-SL module, which is a slave, and the host device is through an SPI interface.
The TiWi-SL EM Board contains an on board chip antenna, and is intended for evaluation purposes when used in conjunction with the Texas Instruments MSP-EXP430FR5739 Experimenter Board.
