TYLC4v1.0.0 User manual
1. Product Overview
TYLC4 is a low-power embedded Wi-Fi module developed by Hangzhou Tuya Information
Technology Co., Ltd., which consists of a highly integrated RF chip ESP8266 and a few
peripheral components with built-in Wi-Fi network protocol stack and abundant library functions.
TYLC4 is embedded with low power 32-bit CPU, 1 Mbyte flash memory and rich peripheral
resources.
TYLC4 is a RTOS platform which integrates all the function libraries of Wi-Fi MAC and
TCP/IP protocol, base on which, users are enabled to develop embedded Wi-Fi products according
to their specific requirements.
