TCP/IP networking stack with SSL/TLS/HTTPS security together with an extensive array of features that vastly simplify development of connected devices. Evaluation of WiConnect and the AMW106 module using the AMW106-A02 ‘Mantis’ Wi-Fi shield, shown in Figure 1, is available with 3.3V tolerant Arduino compatible boards listed below.
Each pin on the module is connected to the expansion header (not populated), a number of module pins also connect to the Wi-Fi shield headers. Schematics for the board are provided in Appendix B. Figure 2. AMW106-A02 Features – TOP VIEW Antenna Connections...

Feature Identification, Section 2 Figure 4. AMW106-A02 Shield Connections for Arduino & Nucleo Shield connections for the Mantis board are shown in Figure 4. There are two serial configurations available for communication between Mantis and the host microcontroller platform. Config A provides a single direct UART connection, and Config B provides a direct UART connection and also enables an additional console connection.
Verifying Operation and Programming of the Nucleo Board The procedures in this section verify that key features of the Nucleo board work, and that you can successfully program the board. For this section the AMW106-A02 (Mantis) Wi-Fi shield should NOT be installed on the Nucleo board.
Installing the AMW106-A02 Mantis and Verifying Wi-Fi Operation The procedures in this section verify that the AMW106-A02 (Mantis) Wi-Fi shield is operating correctly. The wiconnect-web_setup_example provides a simple, quick way to save the SSID and password of your local wireless network on the Mantis.
Using Mantis with a Computer To get started with WiConnect, select USB with the UART switch and connect a USB cable between the AMW106-A02 evaluation board and the USB port of the computer. Open a terminal emulator as described in Appendix A. The USB cable provides the evaluation board with power and a serial UART connection to the computer.
