SX-SDCAN 802.11a/b/g/n Plus Bluetooth* SDIO Card Freescale Recommended Wireless LAN Module The Silex SX-SDCAN is a dual-band 802.11a/b/g/n plus Bluetooth SDIO card that is based on the SX-SDPAN (Qualcomm Atheros AR6233). The SX-SDCAN is mechanically designed in a SD card form factor to provide customers with a vendor independent form factor. The SX-SDCAN is the only Freescale-recommended wireless connectivity solution for the i.MX 6 evaluation platform which includes integrated radio software support (driver and security supplicant). The SX-SDCAN integrates an external 5 GHz Front End Module (FEM) and is individually tuned to optimize WLAN performance. The radio module design approach also saves cost as the SX-SDCAN provides FCC/IC/ETSI/TELEC modular certification.
