The CC3000 is a self-contained wireless solution that simplifies the process of imple-
menting Internet connectivity. SimpleLink™ Wi-Fi minimizes host microcontroller (MCU)
softwar
e requirements making it the ideal solution for embedded applications using any
low-cost/low-power MCU. The CC3000 is provided as a module by TI, LS Research
and Murata to reduce development time, lower manufacturing costs, save board space,
ease certification and minimize RF expertise required. Additionally, it is provided as a
complete platform solution including software drivers, sample applications, API guide,
user documentation and a world-class support community.
