The WA2000 is fully supported on Tibbo's ARM-based programmable devices:
EM2000, EM2001, TPP2(G2), TPP3(G2).
The WA2000 is also partially supported on T1000-based programmable Tibbo
products. Such devices can only access the Wi-Fi interface of the WA2000, as the
BLE interface is not supported by related platforms. The devices are: DS1101,
DS1102, EM1000, EM1001, EM1206, TPP2, TPP3.
Like the GA1000, the WA2000 utilizes an SPI interface and only requires five GPIOs
to control. The module is supplied in two versions: the WA2000U with an U.FL
connector for attaching an external antenna, and WA2000C device with a chip
antenna onboard.
Please note that the WA2000 is a slave device and cannot be used on its own. This
add-on will only work with one of Tibbo devices listed above.
