WiFi module introduction–TYWE3S

1. Product Overview

TYWE3S is a low-power embedded Wi-Fi module developed by Hangzhou Tuya technology co., LTD. It consists of a highly integrated radio frequency chip ESP8266 and a handful of peripheral components, with a built-in Wi-Fi network protocol stack and rich library functions. TYWE3S is built in low-power 32-bit CPU, 2Mbyte flash memory, 50KB SRAM and rich peripheral resources.
TYWE3S is a RTOS platform that integrates all Wi-Fi MAC and TCP/IP protocol libraries. Users can develop embedded Wi-Fi products that meet their needs based on these developments.

Instructions:
P indicates the power pin,I/O means input and output pins,AI represents the analog input pin.
RST is just a module hardware reset pin, can’t clear WiFi distribution network.
(1):This pin can only be used as an ADC port, can not be used as a normol IO port,need to be suspended when not in use。 When used ad an ADC input,input voltage range is limited to 0~1.0V
(2):UARTO is the user serial port,when the module is powered om, serial port has information output,user can ignore.

5. Antenna Information

5.1 Antenna type

​ TYWE3S uses a MIFA onboard antenna with a PCB antenna of 2.4G WIFI band.

5.2 Antenna Interference Reduction

​To ensure optimal Wi-Fi performance, it is recommended that the antenna portion of the module be at least 15 mm away from other metal parts.
Since the use of TYWE3S is applied to the main control board and other components through the SMT process, the placement and placement of the PCB antenna directly affects the RF performance. Below are our recommended placements and suggested placements.
It is recommended to use the placement of scheme 1 and scheme 2, the antenna is hollowed out outside the frame or near the antenna, and the performance is basically consistent with the performance of the individual module RF test.
If the design must be limited, the PCB antenna must be placed on the backplane. Refer to the layout of the scheme 3. The antenna is in the frame, but there is no copper or trace near the antenna, but the RF performance will be somewhat lost. 2dBm.
It is not recommended to use the placement position of scheme 4. The antenna is in the frame and the copper or trace is placed under the antenna. The RF signal will be significantly attenuated.

6. Packaging Information and Poduction Instructions

6.1 Mechanical Dimensions

Note: PCB frame tolerance ±0.15 mm, PCB depth tolerance ±0.1 mm

6.2 Production Instructions

Storage conditions of a delivered module are as follows:
  1. The anti-moisture bag is placed in an environment where the temperature is under 30°C and the relative humidity is under 85%.
  2. The shelf life of a dry-packaged product is six months from the date when the product is packaged and sealed.
Precautions:
  1. Throughout the production process, each involved operator must wear an electrostatic ring.
  2. During the operation, strictly protect the module from water and strains.
