1 Introduction

1.1 CC3100MOD BOOST

Introducing the CC3100MOD Booster pack compatible with all TI Launchpads for adding

WIFI capability to embedded systems.

The CC3100MODBOOST Booster Pack is an easy-to-use evaluation module for the

CC3100 WIFI device. It contains everything needed to start developing a WIFI solution on

TI Launchpad. This board is also designed to interface with another board named

CC3100EMUBOOST (FTDI based Emulation and debug board) to provide an interface to

the PC for development using SimpleLink™ Studio (TI provided application and source

code to develop WIFI based software on a PC)

The CC3100MOD module integrates the complete RF, digital baseband, and power

management needed to provide WIFI access to any embedded system using a 8,16 ot 32

bit Microcontrollers.

Rapid prototyping is a snap thanks to the 40-pin headers and a wide variety of

Launchpads available. These connectors provide stackability to ensure that other

booster-packs like Audio, LCD, sensors etc. can be mounted on top or bottom of this

booster-pack.

1.2 CC3100MOD Module

The CC3100MOD module is a second-generation SimpleLink™ Wi-Fi self-contained

network processor module that dramatically simplifies the implementation of Internet

connectivity. The CC3100MOD module is an ideal solution for embedded applications

using low-cost and low-power microcontrollers with reduced board space and faster

development times.

Fully integrated module with serial flash, Crystal and RF filter. Only needs power

supply and a serial interface to operate.

802.11 b/g/n Station With Fully Integrated Radio, Baseband, and MAC

802.11 Transceiver Mode

IPv4 TCP/IP Stack

8 Simultaneous TCP, UDP, or RAW Sockets

ARP, ICMP, DHCP, DNS, mDNS

TLS 1.2/SSL 3.0 With On-Chip Accelerators

Throughput UDP: 16 Mbps, TCP: 12 Mbps

Interfaces With 8-, 16-, and 32-bit MCU over an SPI Interface with up to 24-MHz

Note :

All signals are 3.3V COMS logic levels and is referred w.r.t. CC3100MOD. For e.g.

UART1_TX is an output from the CC3100MOD.

For the SPI lines, the CC3100MOD always acts like a slave.

2.4 Power

The board is designed to accept power from a mated Launchpad or from the

CC3100EMUBOOST board. Some of the launchpads are not capable of sourcing the

peak current requirements of the WIFI. In such a case the USB connector on the

CC3100MODBOOST can be used to aid the peak current. The use of schottky diodes

ensure that the load sharing happens between the USB connectors on the Launchpad

and the Boosterpack without any board modifications.

Also the 3.3V power can be sourced from the Launchpad or from the 3.3V LDO on the

board. This is done by using the jumper J8. In the case where the Launchpad is not able

to source the 3.3V upto 350mA, then the J8 needs to be configured to work from the on-

board LDO

2.4.1 Power from the Launchpad or CC3100EMUBOOST

The most common scenario will be to power the CC3100MODBOOST from the mated

Launchpad. In this case the Launchpad provides 3.3V to the Booster-pack for its

operation. In addition to the 3.3V the Launchpad provides a 5V from the USB which is

used to drive a 3.3V LDO on the Booster-pack. This LDO sources the 3.3V used for the

top die flash used on development models.
