Getting Started
---------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are unfamiliar with the WICED SDK, please refer to the
WICED Quickstart Guide located here: <WICED-SDK>/doc/WICED-QSG2xx-R.pdf
The WICED Quickstart Guide documents the process to setup a computer for
use with the WICED SDK, IDE and WICED Evaluation Board.
The WICED SDK includes lots of sample applications in the <WICED-SDK>/Apps directory.
Applications included with the SDK are outlined below.
apps/demo : Demonstration Applications
- Applications demonstrating how to integrate various WICED API features
apps/snip : Application Snippets
- Various applications to demonstrate usage of individual WICED APIs
apps/test : Test & Utility Applications
- console : Provides various test features including Iperf for throughput testing
- mfg_test : Manufacturing Test application to enable radio performance and certification testing
apps/waf : WICED Application Framework
- bootloader : Bootloader application used in conjunction with the WICED Application Framework
- sflash_write : Serial flash application used to write data into external serial flash
apps/wwd : Wiced Wi-Fi Driver Applications to demonstrate advanced usage of the low layer Wi-Fi driver
To obtain a complete list of build commands and options, enter the following text in the
base WICED SDK directory on a command line:
$> make
To compile, download and run the Wi-Fi scan application on the Broadcom BCM943362WCD4 evaluation platform,
enter the following text on a command line (a period character is used to reference applications
in sub-directories) :
$> make snip.scan-BCM943362WCD4 download run
The default RTOS and Network Stack components are defined in the WICED configuration makefile
at <WICED-SDK>/tools/makefiles/wiced_config.mk. The default I/O bus component is defined in the platform
makefile at <WICED-SDK>/platforms/<Platform>/<Platform>.mk. Defaults may be bypassed by specifying the
component as part of the build string if desired as shown in the following example.
$> make snip.scan-BCM943362WCD4-FreeRTOS-LwIP-SDIO download run
Source code, headers and reference information for supported platforms are available
in the <WICED-SDK>/platforms directory. Source code, headers, linker scripts etc that
are common to all platforms are available in the <WICED-SDK>/WICED/platform directory.

* Description - Switching between Bluetooth music and Handsfree voice may fail after a few iterations
Workaround - None
Resolution - Targeting to be fixed in the next SDK release
* Features not yet supported in WICED-SDK-3.5.2
- IAR Embedded Workspace native support
- WAC procedure is not supported for AP mode with WEP security
* Platform Restrictions:
BCM943341WCD1
- Wi-Fi Direct not support
- SPI bus not supported
BCM4390WCD2
- Wi-Fi Direct not supported
- WPS may timeout with some access points
* Wi-Fi Powersave (1)
The WLAN chip requires an external 32kHz sleep clock input during powersave.
Platforms that do not support Wi-Fi powersave (per the table above) are
not capable of driving the WLAN sleep clock. An external 32kHz clock is
required for these platforms.
* libc does not include support for printing uint64_t (long long)
* RTOS detection may cause OpenOCD to crash in the following situation:
GDB has an elf containing a known RTOS loaded, and your app is using the
RTOS memory for other purposes. This situation may occur while debugging
the bootloader
SOLUTION : Remove " -rtos auto " from the <WICED-SDK>/Tools/OpenCD/OpenOCD
.cfg file that matches your hardware debugger
(ie. BCM9WCD1EVAL1.cfg for WICED Evaluation Boards)
* For the 43362, AP mode when running with Wi-Fi Direct is limited to 2 STA clients
* P2P feature
If the board's MAC address is locally administered then it needs to be modified
to become a global address or P2P will not initialize.
First build the application using the SDK, then find the
generated_mac_address.txt file and modify the MAC address.
Ex: Change text "macaddr=02:0A:F7:9c:76:f2" to "macaddr=00:0A:F7:9c:76:f2"
Tools
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The GNU ARM toolchain is from Yagarto, http://yagarto.de
Programming and debugging is enabled by OpenOCD, http://openocd.berlios.de
The standard WICED Evaluation board (BCM9WCD1EVAL1) provides two physical
programming/debug interfaces for the STM32 host microprocessor: USB-JTAG and direct
JTAG. The WICED Evaluation board driver additionally provides a single USB-serial
port for debug printing or UART console purposes.
The USB-JTAG interface is enabled by the libftdi/libusb open source driver,
http://intra2net.com/en/developer/libftdi.
The direct JTAG interface works with third party JTAG programmers including
Segger, IAR J-Link and Olimex ARM-USB-TINY series. OpenOCD works with the libftdi/libusb
USB-JTAG driver shipped with the WICED SDK and commercially available JTAG drivers
available from third party vendors.
Building, programming and debugging of applications is achieved using either a
command line interface or the WICED IDE as described in the Quickstart Guide.
Instructions to use the IAR toolchain are provided in a README located in the
following directory: <WICED-SDK>/Tools/IAR

Hello,
I have to download this SDK but it' saying that I don't have the privileges.
Can you help me?
Thank you!
