DA16200 DA16600 Linux Driver
Getting Started Guide for RZ/G2L
UM-WI-059
Abstract
The DA16200 is a highly integrated ultra-low power Wi-Fi system on chip (SoC) that allows users to
develop a complete Wi-Fi solution on a single chip. The DA16600 also includes the DA14531 BLE
solution. This document is a DA16200/DA16dk600 getting started guide intended to help new or
existing developers quickly get started using Linux driver s ource codes to develop Wi-Fi and BLE
applications with the DA16200/DA16600 chipset on RZ/G2L Linux system.
