1. Introduction
1.1 Product Overview
AzureWave Technologies, Inc. introduces the IEEE 802.11b/g/n 1X1 WLAN & Bluetooth module --- AW-
NM333. The module is targeted to mobile devices including Printers, Notebook, TV, Tablet and Gaming
Device which need small package module, low power consumption and OS support. By using AW-NM333,
the customers can easily enable theWi-Fi embedded applications with the benefits of high design flexibility,
short development cycle, and quicktime-to-market.
Compliance with the IEEE 802.11b/g/n standard, the AW-NM333 uses Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
(DSSS), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), DBPSK, DQPSK, CCK and QAM baseband
modulation technologies. A high level of integration and full implementation of the power management
functions specified in the IEEE 802.11 standard minimize the system power requirements by using AW-
NM333. In addition to the support of WPA/WPA2 and WEP 64-bit and128-bit encryption,the AW-NM333 also
supports the IEEE 802.11i securitystandard through the implementation of Advanced Encryption Standard
(AES)/Counter Mode CBC-MAC Protocol (CCMP), Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) with Temporal Key
Integrity Protocol (TKIP), Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)/Cipher-Based Message Authentication Code
(CMAC), and WLAN Authentication and Privacy Infrastructure (WAPI) securitymechanisms.
AW-NM333 supports SDIO for WLAN to the hostprocessor.
