How i interface WiFi module with nRF52832?

[vishal]

Hello sir,

we have completely develop product using nRF52832 and S132, sdk13.1, and its great working fine with BLE. But for same application we want to use wifi module for controlled by anywhere. One device is working with BLE and another same device want to work using any WiFi module. So please give me some guidance how i can interface wifi module with my existing code. I know SDIO protocol so is it possible using SDIO or UART able to communicate with WiFi and upload data to server. Please give me some example for interfacing WiFi using any SDIO or UART or some useful tutorial link. I like nRF52 series controller and it is great low power consumption. Can you suggest me any very low power consumption WiFi module and it will able to work with Nordic SoC.

Thanks.....

WiFi IC that has been integrated with the nRF52 and nRF51. devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../ . I have not done power consumption measurements for the WiFi IC but typically power consumption for these ICs are quite high and will need mains power or a large battery. Mains power can be over PoE to minimize cabling. The IC specified in the blog post uses SPI to connect to the nRF5x.

Thanks David for your quick reply, i also found other low power consumption wifi chip it support UART as well as SDIO interface with nRF52832 chip. So please can you give me some reference code for interfacing using SDIO or UART. Because in my current code have already Nordic UART service for BLE Application so how i convert my existing code into for working with WiFi chip. In nordic sdk is it available any example using SDIO interface protocol. Thanks...
