What are the key features of RN171-I/RM?

Standalone Wi-Fi module with integrated TCP/IP stack eliminating need for a host MCU network library
802.11 b/g/n support enabling up to 11 Mbps or 54 Mbps wireless data rates for IoT applications
Ultra-low power sleep modes with 3.7 V max supply for battery-operated wireless sensor nodes

What is RN171-I/RM used for?

The RN171-I/RM enables rapid wireless connectivity integration in IoT sensor nodes, industrial monitoring equipment, and consumer electronics requiring embedded 802.11 Wi-Fi. Its onboard TCP/IP stack allows microcontrollers to communicate over UART at up to 3.7 V without managing low-level wireless protocols. Smart home devices, remote data loggers, and medical wearables benefit from its small 49-pin module footprint and pre-certified RF performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the RN171-I/RM simplify wireless integration in a microcontroller-based IoT design?

The RN171-I/RM includes a complete TCP/IP stack and 802.11 b/g/n radio, so the host MCU communicates over a simple UART interface without managing RF or network protocols. This reduces firmware development by thousands of lines of code and allows a low-cost 8-bit MCU running at 3.3 V to achieve full Wi-Fi connectivity.

What supply voltage range does the RN171-I/RM require and how does that suit battery-powered applications?

The RN171-I/RM operates with a maximum supply voltage of 3.7 V, which is directly compatible with single-cell Li-ion or LiPo batteries delivering 3.0 V to 3.7 V. This removes the need for a boost converter in battery-powered sensor nodes, simplifying the power path and improving overall system efficiency for remote IoT deployments.

What procurement lead time should engineering teams plan for when sourcing RN171-I/RM in volume?

The RN171-I/RM has a factory lead time of 12 weeks, so procurement teams should submit purchase orders at least 3 months before the production start date. For high-volume programs, maintaining a 6-week safety stock buffer minimizes risk of line stoppages due to supply variability in the 49-pin module assembly supply chain.

For which wireless data rate standards does the RN171-I/RM provide certified compliance?

The RN171-I/RM is certified for 802.11 b, g, and n standards, supporting data rates from 1 Mbps on 802.11b up to 150 Mbps on 802.11n in single-stream mode. The module carries TS 16949 screening level, making it suitable for automotive-adjacent applications, and its pre-certified RF front end eliminates the need for FCC Part 15 module re-testing in the end product.
