CC3000 WiFi, no technical details?

Post by bartgrefte »

Recently I found out about the two CC3000 wifi breakoutboards and the two shields, those are a lot cheaper than the original wifi shield for Arduino's.

Unfortunately, there's a lack of info at the "technical details" section on the product pages.

For example: Which frequency bands are supported? Only 2.4GHz or 5GHz** as well? The same with channels, which are supported? Just 1 to 11 (North America) or 12 and 13 (almost everywhere else) as well? Power usage info would be useful there as well.

Could those tech-specs be added there?

**It sucks that there aren't any 5GHz solutions, well, none that I could find... Got way to much interference here on the 2.4GHz band from over 200 neighboring networks.

They're 2.4GHz only. Not sure about channels 12 and 13.

There's plenty of information here
