xPico® Wi-Fi® Development Kit
The xPico Wi-Fi evaluation board provides a test platform for the Lantronix xPico device server products. The evaluation board uses either 5V power from a USB device port connector or power supplied to the Ethernet connector via PoE. The evaluation board also provides a header for connection to a 2.2V to 5.5V external source, such as a battery. The Evaluation Kit includes a 5V wall adapter with a USB plug to allow powering the evaluation board from a standard power strip. The evaluation board includes all necessary regulators to power the 3.3V xPico module. The evaluation board has the following features:
♦ One DB9 serial port connector with a multi-protocol RS232, RS422, RS485 transceiver at rates up to 1Mbps. Serial port modes are configured by on-board jumpers.
♦ A second RS232 serial port is available on a header.
♦ One RJ45 10/100 Ethernet port with an integrated PoE regulator to allow powering from standard POE PSE. (POE works with Ethernet xPico modules only)
♦ One Mini-Type B USB device port connector for 5V input power. This port also has an integrated USB-to-serial converter. The USB-to-serial converter can be connected to the xPico second serial port via a board jumper setting.
♦ A second Mini-type B USB device port is available for connection to the xPico module USB device port. (Currently available on xPico Wi-Fi only)
♦ LEDs for the xPico Ethernet, WLAN, and System status outputs along with two additional LEDs that can be driven via jumper wire.
♦ Access to all logic level IO signals on the xPico via header pins for measurements and connections to other places.
