Note:
  1. Measured at 802.11 spec compliant EVM/Spectral Mask.
  2. Measured at balun output.
  3. Operating temperature range is -40°C to +85°C. RF performance is ensured at a room temperature of 25°C with a 2-3 dB change at boundary conditions. 
  4. With respect to TX power, different (higher/lower) RF output power settings may be used for specific antennas and/or enclosures, in which case recertification may be required.
  5. The availability of some specific channels and/or operational frequency bands are country dependent and must be programmed at the host product factory to match the intended destination. Regulatory bodies prohibit exposing the settings to the end user. This requirement needs to be taken care of via host implementation.
  6. The RF parameters for the ATWINC15x0-MR210UB is reduced approximately by 1 dB. This insertion loss accounts for PCB trace loss and a filter network to RF U.FL connector.
  7. For more details on the I2C Client interface, refer to 6.1 “I2C Client Interface” from the ATWINC15x0B-MU IEEE® 802.11 b/g/n Network Controller SoC Datasheet (DS70005374).
