RAK13800 WisBlock Ethernet Module Datasheet

Description

RAK13800 is an Ethernet module based on the W5100S-L chip from WIZnet. The module has an embedded Internet Controller Chip that integrates a Hardwired TCP/IP stack with 10/100 Ethernet MAC and PHY. It is truly a one-chip solution for stable internet connectivity.

The RAK13800 TCP/IP stack supports TCP, UDP, IPv4, ICMP, ARP, IGMP, and PPPoE – and it has been proven through various applications over the last decade.

The user can develop an Ethernet application easily by using the simple SOCKETs program instead of handling a complex Ethernet controller. W5100S-L provides four independent SOCKETs to be used simultaneously and 16KB internal memory for RX/TX data communication buffer.

NOTE

RAK13800 can be POE enabled by mounting its daughter power board WisBlock RAK19018 POE Module.

Pin Definition

The RAK13800 WisBlock Ethernet module comprises a standard 40-pin IO Connector. The IO connector allows the RAK13800 module to be mounted to a WisBlock Base Board, such as RAK5005-O. The pin order of the connector and the pinout definition is shown in Figure 4.

NOTES:
  • SPI-related pins, INTn, CSn, RSTn,3V3_S, and GND are connected to IO Connector.
  • +5 V is connected to the WisBlock IO connector to power the WisBlock Base Board with RAK19018 POE.
