Hello,

I am trying to determine a Wiced Wifi module that has Wiced SDK support and is purchasable via digikey / mouser / avnet / arrow

The ones I have checked are all out of stock. Can you please share your module suggestions?

thanks

Hi riforifo​,

If you are looking for only WiFi functionality, you can go for chip CYW43362, modules by our partner Lantronix and Murata. Here is the link of list: http://www.cypress.com/products/wi-fi

If you are looking for WiFi-BT combo chip (BCM4343W/CYW4343W is a combo chip), we have modules Type 1LD, Type 1MD and others from Murata with chips CYW43438/ CYW443W. You can refer http://www.cypress.com/products/wi-fi-bluetooth-combos

Here you can find the links to purchase particular module: Purchase a WICED Wi-Fi Dev Kit

All of our partner modules are listed here in the IoT Solutions Guide

Hello,

I used AES-BCM4343W-M1-G  (from Avnet)  previously but they are out of stock. Basically I simply need Wifi, uart, spi, i2c and OTA capability.

I plan to use the module in a iot gateway design.

It shouldn't be too expensive and it would be nice if I can simply purchase it via digikey, mouser, avnet ...

hello,

thanks for the answer but 50 - 200$ price range is to high. Aren't there cheaper versions?

AES-BCM4343W-M1-G  (from Avnet) costed around 19$. Aren't there similar price range modules that you know of.

thanks

That price range was a mistake. I believe SheetalJ_96

was quoting evaluation board pricing.  Simple b/g/n WiFi only will cost quite a bit less than what you quoted for the Avnet module.

For the best pricing, I'd recommend engaging directly with one of our global distributors like Arrow or Avnet as online prices are often higher than the negotiated pricing you can obtain working directly with a distributor.
