Summary of With the WIZ550WEB module you’re immediately on the web
This article introduces the WIZ550WEB module, an embedded web server solution using the W5500 chip and STM32F103RBT6 MCU for remote device administration. It highlights benefits like time/money savings and remote diagnostics for devices such as heating boilers. The evaluation board offers extensive I/O capabilities, while documentation and source code are available online.
Parts used in the WIZ550WEB Project:
- WIZ550WEB module
- W5500 chip
- STM32F103RBT6 MCU
- Wiz550WEB-EVB development board
- 8 output relays
- 8 digital inputs with optocouplers (TLP290-4)
- 4 analogue inputs (0-12V)
- 4GB microSD card
To administrate devices through a web interface is simple, fast and comfortable. Also can be added, that it´s a solution that saves time and money and in a vast majority of cases it´s beneficial for a producer and also a customer. Besides common “network devices” for example for data acquisition (telemetry – when we want a device to send measured data), a network connectivity is still more used at devices, whose functionality is not dependent on a web connection. Usually here belong devices, where this “extra functionality” brings several advantages.
Example of such device can be for example a heating boiler, where a user can comfortably monitor its operation and change temperature and in case of a required service a producer can diagnostic the device remotely – without a costly personal inspection.
Novelty in this field is the WIZ550WEB module based on the W5500 chip (10/100 Mbps) from company Wiznet and the STM32F103RBT6 MCU. Hardwired core is highly stable and resistant to attacks. By means of the WIZ550WEB module you can use 16 digital I/O pins and 4 analogue inputs. It also supports serial configuration via AT commands.
The simplest way to start is to use a rich-featured development board Wiz550WEB-EVB with 8 output relays, 8 digital inputs with optocouplers (TLP290-4) and 4 analogue inputs (0-12V).
