ETH WIZ 3 Click is a new Ethernet interface Click board from MIKROE, the embedded solutions company that dramatically cuts development time by providing innovative hardware and software products based on proven standards. The compact Click add-on boards enable developers to rapidly provide proof-of-concept, then prototype and code new embedded projects. ETH WIZ 3 Click provides Ethernet connectivity combined with onboard processing capabilities for embedded and IoT applications.
Comments Nebojsa Matic, CEO of MIKROE: “This new Click board is ideal for IoT gateways, industrial automation, smart devices, network-enabled controllers, and embedded systems requiring efficient and simplified Ethernet integration. It is part of our 188+ strong family of interface Click boards and over 873 projects – with working code – featuring the ETH WIZ 3 Click can be found on MIKROE’s embedded projects platform, EmbeddedWiki.”
ETH WIZ 3 Click is based on the W55RP20 System-in-Package (SiP) from WIZNet, which integrates the industry-standard W5500 Ethernet controller with the powerful Raspberry Pi RP2040 dual-core microcontroller into a single solution. It features a hardwired TCP/IP stack supporting multiple network protocols, an integrated Ethernet PHY, a dual Arm Cortex-M0+ processor running at up to 133MHz, on-chip Flash and SRAM memory, selectable SPI or UART communication via a COMM SEL jumper, and a USB Type-C interface driven by the internal USB 2.0 controller. Additional functionality includes TCP activity indication, status LEDs for link diagnostics, exposed Ethernet magnetics centre taps for optional PoE implementation, and accessible debugging test points.
ETH WIZ 3 Click is a recent addition to MIKROE’s 1970-strong mikroBUS-enabled Click board family. The board also features the ClickID function which enables automatic identification by the host system, simplifying use. Devices can be used on any host system supporting the mikroBUS standard, and come with the mikroSDK open-source libraries, offering excellent flexibility for evaluation and customization.
