System description
The ODIN-W2 series is a highly integrated multiradio module developed by u-blox for integration in demanding,
reliable devices such as those needed for industrial and medical applications. The module is built around a
multiradio chip, which includes Wi-Fi, Classic Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy (Dual Mode / Bluetooth Smart
Ready). The Wi-Fi support conforms to IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n, and has support for dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
operation and 2.4 GHz 2×2 MIMO.
The high performance ODIN-W2 series module is available in different versions (see Product features). The
module has a small form factor and the interface layout is the same as previous Bluetooth and Wi-Fi modules
from u-blox in the 15x22 mm ODIN form factor.
The module is complete with embedded driver, stack and application for wireless data transfer and AT-command
configuration. The upcoming extensions of the module firmware include micro Access Point
1
and high speed
interfaces such as RMII for Ethernet applications.
The ODIN-W2 series modules support IEEE 802.11d. IEEE 802.11d is an amendment to the IEEE 802.11
specification that adds support for "additional regulatory domains". IEEE 802.11d allows ODIN-W2 based
devices to self-configure and operate according to the regulations of the country in which they operate. Its
parameters include country name, channel quantity and maximum transmission level. The country information
feature simplifies the creation of 802.11 wireless access points and client devices that meet the different
regulations enforced in various parts of the world. For more information about 802.11d see the
ODIN-W2 Series
Datasheet [2].
