Silex Releases Version 1.5.4 of the SX-ULPGN UART AT Command Set

The SX-ULPGN is an ultra-low-power hostless Wi-Fi IoT module with 802.11 b/g/n support. This low power Wi-Fi IoT module is based on QCA4010 System-on-Chip (SoC) from Qualcomm. Our close relationship with Qualcomm and other partners enables us to provide support for our modules that is not available elsewhere.

The SX-ULPGN also supports a hosted mode for external MCUs with the Silex UART AT Command Set for a cost-effective serial-to-Wi-Fi connectivity addition to already designed IoT solutions with host MCUs.

Based on positive feedback and requests for additional features from our customers, we have now released an update to the UART AT Command Set (Version 1.5.4). This new version adds commonly used networking features like HTTP client and access to peripherals like ADC, PWM, and GPIOs of the SX-ULPGN and make them available to the external Host.

Some of the key features of the Silex AT Command Set are highlighted below:

  • No Host Driver Required for Rapid Customer Enablement
  • Expands SX-ULPGN's Market Reach into Cost-Effective Hosted MCU Based IoT Solutions
  • Comprehensive & Flexible (Runs over Debug UART or over any of the two High Speed UARTs up to 3Mbps)
  • Based on Hayes AT Serial Modem Command Syntax
  • IPv4, IPv6, & Configuration Save/Load
  • HTTP Client & BASIC Authentication
  • SSL Certificate Management
  • DNS Client
  • Commands to Operate GPIOs, ADCs, & PWMs
  • Firmware Update Over-the-Air & UART (XMODEM)
  • AP Mode
  • DHCP Server
  • Suspend/Resume
  • 67 Commands

Having a UART AT Command Set that is as flexible and comprehensive as the SX-ULPGN UART AT Command set enables customers to add Wi-Fi to their existing IoT applications without any driver development. Silex UART AT Command set includes 67 Commands for various functions. It offers a complete network stack offload from the host MCU to run on the SX-ULPGN Wi-Fi module which is cost-effective and pre-certified.
