Can wiced wifi module BCM943362WCD4 be used for communicating with BLE Transciever as shown in the figure? If yes, is the feature integrated in SDK?

Hi,

I'm trying to run OTA_FR app. I've connected an external SPI flash (S32FL032P). I'm using MXCHIP EMW3162 board. This board has STM32f205 with BCM43362. I'm able to download fr_app into serial flash, but it fails to download DCT Image.

When downloading the images, I get following log,

I am looking for guidance on finding the most appropriate Wifi module for my application.  I want to build a device that will use the  module processor as the main processor.  I will need the module to have an SPI master interface to connect to my front end sensors. No traditional host interface required.  Will be a single chip/module solution

Questions -

Which modules will support an SPI master interface for application control ?

Thanks

Every once in a while, calling wiced_bt_smartbridge_connect causes my board to hang indefinitely.  The rarity of this makes me think it could have something to do with the internal state of the bt_smartbridge code.  Has anyone ever seen this?  Is there some delay between attempting connections or attempting connections and scanning?

I do check that wiced_bt_smartbridge_is_ready_to_connect() == WICED_TRUE immediately before attempting the connection, but that doesn't seem to make a difference (unsurprising, since the connection routine performs this check).

I'm using sdk 3.1.1

Hi Guys,

Please advise what Flash File System (readable/writable) to use on External Flash connected to MCU HOST with WICED image.

I would like to use Flash File System to store server web content (and change it), new firmware images etc.

This is not for personal use but for a Commercial device. Flash will be of NOR type. RTOS: FreeRTOS or ThreadX (WICED).

I understand that WICED has a read-only file system.

Thanks in advance.
