Wi-Fi® Microcontrollers (MCUs)

Industrial-Strength Wi-Fi MCU Modules and SoCs


If you’re designing Wi-Fi products, you understand the importance of a reliable connection. However, your customers want more than a strong signal because their customers want to do more with their wireless devices.

You need a solution that does more than an MCU or wireless chip; you need an all-in-one solution that provides the functionality of a MCU and reliable wireless connectivity. In short, you need a Wi-Fi microcontroller (MCU).

Our Wi-Fi MCUs thrive in any environment, including those with noise interference and extreme temperatures common in industrial applications. These robust devices are complemented by a simple development environment and turnkey software examples that make it easy for you to start your project.
