Get the right hardware

We offer the ideal development hardware to get started with your Wi-Fi project.

The nRF7002 DK is our development kit for the nRF7002 Wi-Fi companion IC. The nRF7002 implements the PHY and MAC layer protocols. An nRF5340 is used as the host processor and runs the Wi-Fi driver as well as adding Bluetooth and 802.15.4 functionality. The kit contains everything you need to get started with Wi-Fi development on a single board

For current measurement we recommend having a look at the Power Profiler Kit ll. It can be used with any of our development kits, prototyping platforms, or your own designs. Our PPK2 works all the way from sub-µA to 1 A and can log up to 500 days as is.
