MikroElektronika MIKROE-1718 ETH Wiz Click Evaluation Kit
Introduction
ETH Wiz click™ carries W5500, a 48-pin, 10/100 BASE-TX standalone Ethernet controller with a hardwired TCP/IP Internet protocol offload engine, along with a standard RJ-45 connector. Wiznet’s W5500 module supports TCP, UDP, IPv4, ICMP, ARP, IGMP, and PPPoE protocols. ETH Wiz click™ communicates with the target board MCU through mikroBUS™ RSTn, SCSn, SCLK, MISO, MOSI and INTn lines. The board uses a 3.3V power supply only.
Soldering the headers
- Before using your click™ board, make sure to solder 1×8 male headers to both left and right side of the board. Two 1×8 male headers are included with the board in the package
- Turn the board upside down so that the bottom side is facing you upwards. Place shorter pins of the header into the appropriate soldering pads.
- Turn the board upward again. Make sure to align the headers so that they are perpendicular to the board, then solder the pins carefully.
- Turn the board upside down so that the bottom side is facing you upwards. Place shorter pins of the header into the appropriate soldering pads.
Plugging the board in
Once you have soldered the headers your board is ready to be placed into the desired mikroBUS™ socket. Make sure to align the cut in the lower-right part of the board with the markings on the silkscreen at the mikroBUS™ socket. If all the pins are aligned correctly, push the board all the way into the socket
Essential features
- The W5500 module onboard ETH Wiz click™ employs a variety of solutions to reduce the target MCU’s memory load and enable a stable and secure Internet connection.
- High speed network communications are realized through a 80 MHz SPI interface. The module has 32KB of internal memory for TX/RX buffers.
- Reduced power consumption is achieved with Wake on LAN and power down modes.
- Automatic handshaking, retransmit on collision and automatic rejection of erroneous packets are also supported. The board is ideal for Home network devices and all sorts of embedded servers.

Mode selection jumpers
These three SMD jumpers (zero ohm resistors) are used for specifying the PHY network operation mode. For detailed configuration instructions, consult Wiznet’s data sheet for the W5500 module.
Code examples
Once you have done all the necessary preparations, it’s time to get your click™ board up and running. We have provided examples for mikroC™, mikroBasic™ and mikroPascal™ compilers on our Libstock website. Just download them and you are ready to start
