Datasheet for Qualcomm Atheros QCA4004

Qualcomm low-power Wi-Fi The connectivity platform for emerging device categories that comprise the Internet of Everything.

The QCA4004 is an intelligent platform for the Internet of Everything.
The complete networking platform enables customers to add fullfeatured Wi-Fi to a wide variety of products with minimal development effort and cost. It supports a network stack, along with SSL security, enabling secure internet connectivity and reliable information exchange in a small, low-cost system. It supports the AllJoyn connectivity software framework and services, allowing devices to discover, connect and communicate directly with one another.
The QCA4004 is a full-featured, dual-band, single-stream 802.11n solution. The highly-integrated Wi-Fi link includes an energy efficient on-board power amplifier and LNA. For the 2.4 GHz band, RF switches are also integrated. The QCA4004 is optimized for low system cost, and minimizes the number of components required to achieve a reliable Wi-Fi link. In addition, the QCA4004 can operate in a pure hostless mode of operation.
Developers can write simple applications directly on the QCA4004, eliminating the need for a standalone MCU. The QCA4004 also supports additional power gating technology, to allow for direct battery connections, and reduce the total BOM cost for products such as sensors and remotes.
