AIR for Wi-Fi Modules and Development Kit

Anaren updates the Atmosphere IoT development platform to version 2.0, which features access to the Atmosphere Cloud hosting client and expansion for Wi-Fi project selection, among several additional features and updates

Wi-Fi applications can now be developed and tested in Anaren Atmosphere with the Anaren Wi-Fi Cloud IoT development kit. This development kit features an innovative stacked design featuring two separate boards: the A43364 development board that embeds the Anaren AIR for Wi-Fi A43364 module, and the multi-sensor shield that includes a variety of sensors used to test various peripherals. The A43364 is a high-performance, low-power Wi-Fi module based on the Cypress CYW43364 chipset. It is IEEE 802.11b/g/n compliant and meets worldwide regulatory and certification requirements.

Both boards feature an Arduino-compatible footprint, offering the ability to use either board individually with an Arduino board for complete cross-platform compatibility.

Offering the ideal Wi-Fi development solution, the kit is used with Anaren Atmosphere, Anaren’s innovative cloud-based development environment and Atmosphere Cloud hosting client. Using these tools together, the Wi-Fi Cloud IoT development kit provides a complete rapid prototyping IoT toolkit for faster development and quicker time to deployment.
