1.1 Abstract
The document mainly lists the issues that need attention in all stages during the use of
99 IoT Wi-Fi module AF-W12xTx design by users in order to reduce design costs and
increase product stability as far as possible.
AF-W12xTx is a complete and self-contained WiFi network solution module that can
run either in MCU+WIFI mode or as a slave on other master MCU. The sensor and
other applied specific devices can be integrated through GPIO port.

1. PIN19, 20 are for the use when Wi-Fi debugs LOG information input and output
port.
2. PIN19 of module AF-W121Tx needs to be pulled up to 3.3V externally, or floating,
or to ensure that power-on time isn’t low level.
3. Please keep CHIP_EN or other pins floating if they are not used.
