Nordic has introduced the nRF7002 EBII as an updated Wi-Fi 6 expansion board for its nRF54L series development kits. The earlier nRF7002 WiFi 6 board was a low-cost add-on for the Thingy:53, mainly for basic prototyping. The new EBII is designed for the newer nRF54L series of SoCs with dual-band Wi-Fi 6 support, power-profiling options, and more. Built around the nRF7002 Wi-Fi Companion IC, it supports Wi-Fi 6 features such as TWT, OFDMA, and BSS coloring for power efficiency and reduced interference. The EBII communicates with nRF54L15 and nRF54LM20 DKs through SPI/QSPI host interfaces, and includes headers for power profiling. Additionally, it features an onboard chip antenna, supports both STA and SoftAP modes, and maintains backward compatibility with 802.11a/b/g/n/ac. These features make it suitable for low-power multiprotocol IoT devices in smart homes, Matter, industrial sensing, wearables, and connected health applications. nRF7002 Expansion Board II specifications: Wi-Fi Companion IC – Nordic nRF7002 […]
