NRF7002-EB

NRF7002-EB is an expansion board. It is a plug-in board for adding Wi-Fi 6 connectivity to a Nordic Thingy:53. It contains everything needed to get started developing Wi-Fi applications on the Thingy:53. The board connects with a PCB edge connector to the Thingy:53’s expansion slot and uses the Thingy’s nRF5340 multiprotocol System-on-Chip (SoC) as a host device for the nRF7002 Wi-Fi Companion IC. With a firmware upgrade, the Thingy:53 will be able to communicate with Edge Impulse Studio directly over Wi-Fi. The nRF7002 expansion board can also be used for easy prototyping with other Nordic host devices, with castellations for all pins on the nRF7002 and perforations along the neck of the Thingy:53 specific connector, making it possible to break off. Typical applications are asset tracking, battery-operated Wi-Fi products, machine learning (ML), matter prototyping, smart city and smart agriculture, smart home, industrial sensors, wearables and medical.
