WL1807MOD: How to find an API to access the WL1807MOD?

Part Number: WL1807MOD


We were looking through the WL1807MOD documentation, such as processors.wiki.ti.com/.../WL18xx, still not sure: can we use it with some third party MCUs, such as STM32F?  Is there an API over SDIO, SDMMC etc to access its features? Any C code examples how to do it?

It would be very helpful for new system designers, if such information would be easily available at first pages of module data sheets, as the cost of software development these days makes an essential part of the overall system cost.

Thanks!

    Hi,

    Our internal releases are mainly for host systems running Linux and wilink8 drivers are part of the Linux kernel.

    It is using SDIO as the physical interface but the integration is with the mac80211 layer in the linux kernel. It is not a standalone driver.

    For integration with MCUs you normally need to work with third parties .See the below link under the third parties section.

    For MCUs it is probably this:

    ThreadX, FreeRTOS, µC, Nucleus, ThreadX , MQX ,RTX, uITRON (Website http://www.clarinox)

    BR,

    Thanks Eyal.

    Does TI have any WiFi modules with a simple API for MCUs that doesn't require OS and are a high speed (such as 802.11/ac, 802.11/n)?
