    Hi Lakshmi,


    Please keep in mind that the non-volatile memory in the CC3000 module is of type EEPROM and has a write-erase cycle limit of 100,000. Also be careful not to call methods that write to the EEPROM more than 100,000 times during the lifetime of your device. These methods are:

    netapp_timeout_values(...)
    wlan_ioctl_set_connection_policy(...)
    wlan_ioctl_set_scan_params(...)
    netapp_config_mac_adrress(...)
    netapp_dhcp(...)
    wlan_add_profile(...)
    wlan_ioctl_del_profile(...)

    Once you reach this limit your CC3000 module will be dead.

    If I call wlan_ioctl_set_scan_params(...) with the same parameters does that count as an EEPROM write cycle?

    Yes, it does. There is no internal logic to check if the values were modified and write only of they were. I reported this issue a few months ago and asked TI to fix it, but as usual they did not.
