WIZnet W5200 for QuickStart (#40002) 

The WIZnet W5200 for QuickStart allows your 

QuickStart board to serve data to an Ethernet network 
or even the internet.  The WIZnet W5200 chip provides 

an Ethernet to SPI bridge which is interfaced with 

Parallax’s 8-core microcontroller, the Propeller P8X32A.  

The data served to a network can be anything you want 

– web pages, serial data, email, and more.   

 
Many useful demo programs are available for download 

from the product page to get you started, including a 

webserver capable of serving dynamic data from the SD 

card to your favorite browser.  Advanced users can 

develop firmware that allows the WIZnet W5200 board 

+ QuickStart to respond to or generate any type of 
network traffic.   

Features

 

 

Prewritten drivers to support common network protocols such as TCP and UDP connections, 

HTTP, DHCP, DNS resolution, POP, SMTP, NetBIOS, and SNTP 

 

Prewritten demonstration programs, including a simple web server 

 

WIZnet W5200 TCP/IP 10BaseTX/100BaseTX Ethernet controller 

 

Micro SD card support 

 

I2C real time clock with super-cap battery backup 

 

Supports IEEE 802.3af PoE (Power over Ethernet) with a Silvertel Ag9050 daughterboard module 

(not included) 

 

Power may be supplied by your computer’s USB port, onboard 2.1 mm barrel jack, or PoE 

 

Open Source Hardware 

Specifications 

 

Power Requirements: 5–9 VDC, 300 mA max current draw, 175 mA typical current draw
