Question: Which chipsets supported in WICED™ Studio are compliant with many of the Wi-Fi Alliance specifications?

From the WICED Technical Brief… https://community.cypress.com/docs/DOC-15208

Core Wi-Fi Technologies

Wi-Fi Standards

The Wi-Fi cores and chipsets supported in the WICED™ Studio are compliant with many Wi-Fi Alliance specifications. Cypress performs internal Wi-Fi pre-certification testing against the following specifications on all WICED™ releases:

  • Wi-Fi CERTIFIED n
    • Both 2.4 and 5 GHz bands
  • Wi-Fi CERTIFIED ac in 5 GHz
  • Wi-Fi Direct®
  • Wi-Fi Protected Setup™
  • WMM® (Wi-Fi Multimedia™)

In addition to these active Wi-Fi programs, interoperability testing with legacy Wi-Fi CERTIFIED a and Wi-Fi CERTIFIED b/g devices are covered in our interop test lab.

Table 4 lists the WICED supported chipsets and the Wi-Fi certification program against which the chipsets are tested.

Hi ,

We are using CYW943907AEVAL1F chip in our product. We use  only 5Ghz. We need to get it certified for RF.

Please let us know what tests to be performed for WIFI , RF certification . What is the support available in WICED for certification..?

Can we utilize the certification reports of Cypress ?

Cypress certified the 43907 as a Source Product and customers use this to create a Derivative Certification for their final product.

Attached is the Derivative Certification Process overview and Policy as Documented by WFA (these are from the Summer of 2018, so there may be updated versions).

The module partner you are engaged with for production can also help with this process.

Any idea if the CYW4343W is Wi-FI Certified WPA3?

Since we're using a module that includes this chip, would the company we bought the module from have had to do the certification if Infineon hadn't?
