AMW004 • 802.11b/g/n WICED™ Module
General Description, Section 1
ADS-MW004-100D8 • Preliminary Data Sheet Page | 1
©2014 ACKme Networks. http://ack.me March 4, 2014
1 General Description
The AMW004 module from ACKme Networks combines
a SAM4S microcontroller with a BCM43362 Wi-Fi device
and on-board antenna to provide an advanced stand-
alone Wi-Fi and networking solution.
An integrated module avoids difficult RF layout and en-
ables designers to rapidly embed Wi-Fi and secure net-
working functionality into virtually any device.
Custom applications may be developed for the module
using the Broadcom WICED Software Development Kit.
Alternately, the ACKme Networks WiConnect serial-to-
Wi-Fi application may be used to fast-track module in-
tegration into end products.
With dimensions of just 0.7 x 1.25 inches and a wide
temperature range, the module is suitable for integra-
tion into most embedded applications.
The Wi-Fi device from Broadcom includes an integrated
RF transmit power amplifier and provides superior
Wi-Fi performance and full compatibility with all 2.4GHz
802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi networks. An external antenna op-
tion provides additional performance and flexibility if
required.
The SAM4S microprocessor from Atmel is based on a
high-performance ARM® Cortex™-M4 32-bit RISC core
operating at a frequency up to 120MHz. The SAM4S
incorporates high-speed embedded memory including
1MB Flash memory and 128kB SRAM, and an extensive
range of enhanced I/Os and peripherals.
The AMW004 module connects a large number of
SAM4S pins to capitalize on the extensive SAM4S I/O
and peripheral interfaces. The module supports the fol-
lowing list of interfaces, and provides additional inter-
face combinations by leveraging SAM4S I/O multiplex-
ing and alternate function capabilities.
10 x 12-bit A/D converters
1 x 12-bit D/A converters
1 x 4-Wire USART interface
1 x 4-Wire, 2 x 2-Wire UART interfaces
1 x SPI master/slave bus
2 x I2C interfaces
1 x I2S interface
1 x USB full-speed device interface
12 x edge/level sensitive wake inputs
The module may be powered by a single 3.3V power
supply. A separate power supply pin for the Wi-Fi sub-
system is provided to minimize power supply noise
coupling into the WLAN subsystem, and to enable addi-
tional control for power sensitive applications.
Power consumption in various states is determined by
the power consumption of the SAM4S microprocessor
and BCM43362 Wi-Fi chip. The power supply to the
Wi-Fi chip and radio subsystem may be externally knife-
switched under software control to achieve minimum
power consumption in an ultra-low power backup state
described in the SAM4S datasheet.
The microprocessor may be woken from low power
states by connecting any of 12 different module pins, or
by other methods including an internal RTC/RTT timer
or supply monitor as described in the SAM4S datasheet.
The module incorporates a 32.768kHz crystal to main-
tain an accurate real time clock. A 32kHz clock output is
available on a dedicated module pin in both active and
SAM4S powerdown modes. The 32kHz clock output
may be used to drive the clock input of other system
devices. This avoids the need for an additional crystal
thereby minimizing total system cost.
Application debugging with a software debugger such
as gdb is enabled with a standard JTAG (or Serial Wire
Debug) interface.
The module has FCC modular approval for use in the
United States, and CE approval for use in Europe and
other countries.

2 Block Diagram
Figure 1 is a block diagram of the AMW004 module. The
main components of the module are an AT91SAM4S16C
microprocessor and BCM43362 Wi-Fi System-in-
Package (SiP) module. The SAM4S ARM processor and
peripherals are driven by a 12MHz crystal, the integrat-
ed RTC is driven by a 32.768kHz crystal. An integrated
1MByte serial flash chip may be used to store additional
applications, user data or firmware images as part of an
over the air (OTA) update process.
A dedicated power supply input to the WLAN subsys-
tem is controlled by an application running on the
SAM4S, enabling the module to achieve minimum pow-
er consumption when the Wi-Fi networking interface is
not required.
The module includes an antenna diversity switch. The
switch enables static or dynamic selection of the on-
board antenna or an external antenna plugged to the
u.FL connector.

Design Guidelines, Section 6
ADS-MW004-100D8 • Preliminary Data Sheet Page | 10
©2014 ACKme Networks. http://ack.me March 4, 2014
6 Design Guidelines
6.1 Recommended PCB Footprint
Figure 3. AMW004 Recommended Footprint (Top)
All dimensions are in thousands of an inch unless oth-
erwise marked. The addition of castellation’s on the
periphery of the module carrier board directly beneath
the end of the module nearest the antenna (as depict-
ed in Figure 3) are strongly recommended.
6.2 Routing Recommendations
When designing a carrier board, the addition of ground
fill directly underneath the AMW004 module, rather
than signal or power traces, is recommended. If traces
must be routed directly beneath the module, avoid
routing directly under tests pads or under the end of
the module close to the antenna. Failure to comply
with these recommendations may result in degraded
performance of WLAN functionality.

6.4 Module Photograph
Figure 4. AMW004 Photograph (Top)
6.5 Application Examples
This section provides circuit examples demonstrating
how to configure the module to meet various applica-
tion requirements.
Power Supply 6.5.1
The module requires at least 10µF of bulk capacitance
between VDD_3V3 pin 29 and ground and between
VDD_3V3_WIFI pin 2 and ground. The WLAN radio per-
formance may be significantly degraded if ground Pins
44-54 near the antenna are not connected to a solid
ground.
For applications that do not require separate control of
the WLAN power supply, the VDD_3V3 and
VDD_3V3_WIFI power supply pins may be connected
together as shown in .
Alternately, for applications that require finer control
over power consumption, the VDD_3V3_WIFI supply
can be dynamically driven. This is achieved using a sep-
arate regulator, or with a P-channel MOSFET as shown
in . The WIFI_EN gate enable signal may be connected
to any available GPIO on the module and controlled by
software to power on or off the WLAN subsystem as
required.

Programming and Debug 6.5.2
The module may be programmed using the WICED SDK
by connecting power and a JTAG JLINK header as shown
in Figure 7. JTAG adapters from Olimex, Segger or oth-
ers may be used as described in the WICED SDK docu-
mentation.
Figure 7. Connecting the AMW004 Module for Programming and Debug
Operation using WiConnect 6.5.3
The AMW004 module is pre-installed with WiConnect,
ACKme Networks feature-rich and reliable serial Wi-Fi
networking application with easy-to-use commands.
The module only requires power and a connection to a
serial interface such as UART or SPI. A host processor
connects to pins 23/24 (or 38/39) as shown in Figure 8
if the USART1 (or USART0) serial interface is used.

in various regulatory domains. This section outlines cer-
tification information specific to the following countries
and regions:
United States
Canada
Europe
Australia
New Zealand
Should you require regulatory certification for the
AMW004 module in a country or region not listed,
please contact your local ACKme Networks sales office
or create a support request via our website at
http://ack.me.
7.1 United States
The ACKme Networks AMW004 module has received
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) CFR47 Tele-
communications, Part 15 Sub-part C “Intentional Radia-
tors” modular approval in accordance with Part 15.212
Modular Transmitter approval. Modular approval al-
lows the end user to integrate the AMW004 module
into a finished product without obtaining subsequent
and separate FCC approvals for intentional radiation,
provided no changes or modifications are made to the
module circuitry. Changes or modifications could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment. The end
user must comply with all of the instructions provided
by the Grantee which indicate installation and/or oper-
ating conditions necessary for compliance.
The finished product is required to comply with all ap-
plicable FCC equipment authorization, regulations, re-
quirements, and equipment functions not associated
with the transmitter module portion. For example,
compliance must be demonstrated to regulations for
other transmitter components within the host product;
to requirements for unintentional radiators (Part 15
Sub-part B “Unintentional Radiators”), such as digital
devices, computer peripherals, radio receivers, etc.; and
to additional authorization requirements for non-
transmitter functions on the transmitter module (i.e.
Verification, or Declaration of Conformity) (e.g., trans-
mitter modules may also contain digital logic functions)
as appropriate.
Labeling and User Information 7.1.1
Requirements
The AMW004 module has been labelled with a unique
FCC ID number, and if the FCC ID is not visible when the
module is installed inside another device, then the out-
side of the finished product into which the module is
installed must also display a label referring to the en-
closed module. This exterior label can use wording as
follows:
The user manual for the product should include the fol-
lowing statement:
Contains FCC ID: 2ABPY-61F8D
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause un-
desired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to com-
ply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursu-
ant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are de-
signed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate ra-
dio frequency energy and if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harm-
ful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not oc-
cur in a particular installation. If this equipment
does cause harmful interference to radio or televi-
sion reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to
try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equip-
ment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a cir-
cuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

RF Exposure 7.1.2
All transmitters regulated by FCC must comply with RF
exposure requirements. OET Bulletin 65, Evaluating
Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to
Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, provides assis-
tance in determining whether proposed or existing
transmitting facilities, operations or devices comply
with limits for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)
fields adopted by the Federal Communications Com-
mission (FCC). The bulletin offers guidelines and sugges-
tions for evaluating compliance.
If appropriate, compliance with exposure guidelines for
mobile and unlicensed devices can be accomplished by
the use of warning labels and by providing users with
information concerning minimum separation distances
from transmitting structures and proper installation of
antennas.
The following statement must be included as a CAU-
TION statement in manuals and OEM products to alert
users of FCC RF exposure compliance:
If the AMW004 module is used in a portable application
(i.e., the antenna is less than 20 cm from persons dur-
ing operation), the integrator is responsible for per-
forming Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing in ac-
cordance with FCC rules 2.1091.
External Antenna 7.1.3
Modular approval in the United States is permitted with
the use of the integrated antenna ONLY. If an external
