Wi-Fi Combo Forum Discussions
Hi, I want to provide a USB host interface based on WICED design. I will use the USB OTG of STM32F205 to provide it. But I can't find WICED SDK provide the USB driver. Does WICED provide the usb OTG API for STM32F205? Thank you.
Best Regards,
Jerry
Show LessHi,
I want to develop a low cost (<$20) battery powered wifi device. I currently searching for a chip to handle the radio part. I am interested by TI SimpleLink and your Wiced platform.
What are the main differences between the BCM43364 and BCM43362 ? I couldn't find a product comparison page.
Thank you.
Ps : Sorry for my bad English
Show LessHello all,
I want to ask if wafer provides the function of router.
I used the tcp mode with bcm943362wcd4 A B C module, in the picture:
If I want to transmit a packet from c to b, Can a transfer automatically?
thanks
Show LessHi,
I am trying to run the wiced SDK 3.5.2 on the STM32F4 discoverykit with STM32F407VG MCU. I am using the platform files from the following link SN8000 WiFi Module with STM Discovery Board
I am flashing the bootloader.bin, DCT.bin and the application.bin using the ST-link utility. But a simple application, like an LED glow is also not happening. Please suggest any solutions.

Show LessHi all,
Is Ad-Hoc mode supported in WICED?
I was looking through the Wi-Fi driver in the SDK but found few mentions of it, with lots of Ad-Hoc events unhandled and no way that I could find for creating an IBSS network.
Someone asked the same question a while back and got an uncertain answer...
I did see some posts about people claiming they were using Ad-Hoc, but with no detail.
It's obvious the hardware supports it, since the "wl" tool allows it. However, I don't know if WICED supports it as well.
Thanks,
Victor
Show LessIDE installer 3.5.2 is available for Windows environment.
But I couldn't find any newer version pkg for OS X.
Should I install SDK 3.1.2 and then update SDK to 3.5.2?
Or does Broadcom have any plan to release pkg?
Reference URL:
WICED Software Development Kit 3.1.2
WICED SDK 3.5.2 IDE Installer and .7z Source files
Show LessI'm looking at WICED 3.5.2 has what looks like a crypto PRNG. In the file named "wiced_crypto.c", the default PRNG implementation is initialised like this:
static wiced_crypto_prng_t prng_well512 =
{
.get_random = &prng_well512_get_random,
.add_entropy = &prng_well512_add_entropy
};
It's using WELL512 algorithm which is not cryptographically secure. It even has this comment:
static uint32_t prng_well512_get_random( void )
{
/*
* Implementation of WELL (Well equidistributed long-period linear) pseudorandom number generator.
* Use WELL512 source code placed by inventor to public domain.
*
* This is NOT cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator (CSPRNG).
* If need CSPRNG please use third party implementation, for example OpenSSL (it includes CPRNG),
* FORTUNA algorithm (implementation can be found in PostgresSQL).
* Current PRNG can be used for seeding them.
*/
So, why in the world is this code there? Why is a PRNG that's explicitly stated to be not cryptographically secure used in a module with a name that implies cryptographic security?
Show LessHi,
I'm testing on a BCM4343W platform.
By default, build image will download filesystem image to internal flash.
How to config the SDK to download filesystem image to external flash?
The same question for OTA/FR application images.
Is there any documentation or example for such configuration?
Note, I already have download_apps in my build command, but it still download
filesystem to internal flash. Only DCT and WIFI_FIRMWARE in external flash.
Thanks.
Show LessI just installed WICED SDK 3.5.2 with IDE under Windows. I cannot find in "Make Target" anything related to BCM4390x boards although under platforms folder I can see few BCM4390x enlisted.
Is WICED-SDK 3.5.2 with IDE supporting BCM4390x or developers are supposed to build without IDE?
Show LessI have been trying to install WICED SDK in virtual box running linux. I plugged in my device using USB and I am trying to download the compiled code and I always run into OpenOCD failure. The USB settings are enabled in the Virtual box and show the device is connected and can be used.
The following error appears when the make command is issued:
Downloading Bootloader ...
**** OpenOCD failed - ensure you have installed the driver from the drivers directory, and that the debugger is not running **** In Linux this may be due to USB access permissions. In a virtual machine it may be due to USB passthrough settings. Check in the task list that another OpenOCD process is not running. Check that you have the correct target and JTAG device plugged in. ****
