# cyw43
Rust driver for the CYW43439 wifi chip, used in the Raspberry Pi Pico W. Implementation based on [Infineon/wifi-host-driver](https://github.com/Infineon/wifi-host-driver).
## Current status
Working:
- Station mode (joining an AP).
- AP mode (creating an AP)
- Scanning
- Sending and receiving Ethernet frames.
- Using the default MAC address.
- [`embassy-net`](https://embassy.dev) integration.
- RP2040 PIO driver for the nonstandard half-duplex SPI used in the Pico W.
- Using IRQ for device events
- GPIO support (for LED on the Pico W)
TODO:
- Setting a custom MAC address.
- Bus sleep (for power consumption optimization)
## Running the examples
- `cargo install probe-rs --features cli`
- `cd examples/rp`
### Example 1: Scan the wifi stations
- `cargo run --release --bin wifi_scan`
### Example 2: Create an access point (IP and credentials in the code)
- `cargo run --release --bin wifi_ap_tcp_server`
### Example 3: Connect to an existing network and create a server
- `cargo run --release --bin wifi_tcp_server`
After a few seconds, you should see that DHCP picks up an IP address like this
```
11.944489 DEBUG Acquired IP configuration:
11.944517 DEBUG IP address: 192.168.0.250/24
11.944620 DEBUG Default gateway: 192.168.0.33
11.944722 DEBUG DNS server 0: 192.168.0.33
```
This example implements a TCP echo server on port 1234. You can try connecting to it with:
```
nc 192.168.0.250 1234
```
Send it some data, you should see it echoed back and printed in the firmware's logs.
## Minimum supported Rust version (MSRV)
Embassy is guaranteed to compile on the latest stable Rust version at the time of release. It might compile with older versions but that may change in any new patch release.
