ESCRIPTION
The Sterling-LWB & Sterling-LWB5 SD Card development board is an evaluation and development board for the
Laird Sterling-LWB and Sterling-LWB5 module. It connects to a standard SDIO card slot on a host board and can
be powered directly from the SD card slot or from an external power supply. Additionally, it brings out all
necessary GPIO pins for Wi-Fi operation and all necessary pins for Bluetooth operation including PCM audio pins.
This allows the board to be connected to any development board with an available SD card slot. The board
allows for quick prototyping of designs using the Laird Sterling-LWB and Sterling-LWB5 modules.
