To attach the single row headers to the Freedom Platform, please reference the "FRDM-KL25Z Single Row/Arduino Header Layout" diagram. Attaching these headers to the outside row of I/O holes on the board give you access to the unlimited potential of access to peripherals designed for ArduinoTM-compatible hardware. Using optional dual row headers are also acceptable, but are not needed to use ArduinoTM-compatible hardware/ shields. Header Positions on Board SAMTEC SSW-106-01-T-S J10 SAMTEC SSW-108-01-T-S J1,J9 SAMTEC SSW-110-01-T-S J2 SAMTEC TSW-102-07-T-S J3, J4, J11 * * Three of these headers have been included for additional/ advanced features that are available on positions J3, J4, and J11 and are not necessary for use with ArduinoTM-compatible hardware/ shields . Details of their functionality can be found in the Freedom Platform documentation. www.freescale.com Page <3> 20/11/12 V1.0 Shield - WiFi The Arduino WiFi Shield connects your Arduino to the internet wirelessly. Connect it to your wireless network by following a few simple instructions to start controlling your world through the internet. As always with Arduino, every element of the platform - hardware, software and documentation - is freely available and open-source. This means you can learn exactly how it's made and use its design as the starting point for your own circuits. Check out the reference page of the WiFi library to understand how the shield can easily provide an internet connection to your Arduino board. Technical Specifications Requires and Arduino board (not included) Operating voltage 5V (supplied from the Arduino Board) Connection via: 802.11b/g networks Encryption types: WEP and WPA2 Persoanl Connection with Arduino on SPI port on-board micro SD slot ICSP headers FTDI connection for serial debugging of WiFi shield Micro-USB for updating WiFi shield firmware The WiFi Shield communicates with Arduino using the SPI bus (through the ICSP header), so is compatible with any of the boards that have this type of bus. This version of WiFi shield have an integrated antenna on the PCB, what you have to do is just connect the shield to the Arduino.
