1: Introduction
This data sheet describes the SMT models, xPico W1002 and W1003, which are all referred to
generally as the Lantronix® xPico® Wi-Fi SMT family of embedded Wi-Fi
device servers in this
document.
The xPico W1002 and W1003 provide much of the circuitry and all of the software required to
connect a micro controller or similar host device to an IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Wireless local area
network (WLAN). The xPico W1000 family of device servers are available either in a very small
and attractive 76-pad castellation surface mount package (SMT), or a connector version (xPico
Wi-Fi device server, XPW1001000-01). The SMT form factor is itself available in two versions,
with or without an onboard ceramic chip antenna.
For the purposes of this document the xPico W1002 and xPico W1003 modules will be referred to
collectively as xPico Wi-Fi SMT embedded device servers.
For an embedded solution an external controller can connect through industry standard interfaces
such as serial, SPI or USB 2.0 (Device) and with very little to no driver effort have the ability to
connect and communicate to either an IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Access Point or Client.
The xPico Wi-Fi SMT device server is targeted for applications that have a need to be Wi-Fi
enabled with requirements of low power, single channel 802.11 b/g/n, industrial ready and ready
to go solution at a very competitive price.
The xPico Wi-Fi SMT device server is easy to integrate as Lantronix removes much of the design
headaches by providing a platform with proven reliability with most of the necessary certification
aspects taken care of and with very minimal software to develop.
The xPico Wi-Fi SMT device server supports the unique mode of simultaneous Soft Access Point
(Soft-AP) and Client. As a device server the device provides all the necessary functional
programmability and protocols to maintain an efficient and robust WLAN connection.

Little to no software integration needed
The xPico Wi-Fi SMT device server benefits from the many years of experience Lantronix has
with device servers, both wired and wireless. The xPico W1000 is easy to maintain. With
technical support available and failsafe firmware upgrades from a remote manager.
