SDAWIR Demonstration Kits

Renesas’ SDAWIR evaluation kit demonstrates using the 6LoWPAN ZWIR4512 low power wireless module. This communicates sensor measurement data to a Wi-Fi hub allowing a linked device to display and graph the measured data in real time.

The FS2012 flow sensor and HS3001 humidity and temperature sensor are mounted in a 5 cm clear plastic cube that contains a ZWIR4512 wireless module to communicate with the hub. The Wi-Fi hub and the sensor cube are powered by a separate AC/DC wall mount adapter.

The hub utilizes a Raspberry Pi Zero W to provide the Wi-Fi hub function interfaced to the ZWIR4512 wireless module. The hub is using Raspbian LXDE lightweight desktop environment. Raspbian is a Debian-based computer operating system for the Raspberry Pi. The hub micro SD card is fully loaded and ready for operation.
