**Welcome to the resource center for the chipKIT Wi-FIRE! Revision B**


As of September 14th 2015, we have replaced this Revision with [[chipkit_wifire:chipkit_wifire|Revision C]]. Please check the version of your board. 

You can find the revision of your board by looking on the underside, near the white bar-coded box.

  * We are currently on **Revision C** of the WF32.
  * Revision B, for this resource center, was the first revision available for sale.
  * Revision C updated the silicon (previously Pre-Production) to Production Silicon. 


Building on the previous successes with the chipKIT™ WF32, the Wi-FIRE uses the same, 43 available I/O Pins, 12 Analog Inputs, 3.3 Operating voltage, 4 User LEDs, potentiometer, buttons, uses MRF24 on-board wireless module, micro SD Card, dedicated SPI Signals and high efficiency switching 3.3V switching power supply for low-power operation. 

The Wi-FIRE is significantly faster than its WF32 counterpart, with 200MHz operation speed, 2MB of Flash, 512kB RAM, High Speed USB and a 50MHz SPI. The PIC32MZ core includes the MIPS MicroAptiv CPU Core from Imagination Technologies. microAptiv is a highly efficient, compact, core that is optimized for cloud-connected based projects, using Imagination Technologies’ FlowCloud software.
