Nordic Semiconductor's first Wi-Fi capable chip was the nRF7002. This companion IC adds Wi-Fi 6 at 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz to any microcontroller with an SPI or QSPI interface. The nRF7002 DK (development kit) provides a demonstration platform for the chip and Nordic's nRF53 Arm + Bluetooth Low Energy SoC.

In this video, James gives an overview of the nRF7002 and its design kit. Then, he demonstrates some current and RF measurements. Last, he compares the nRF7002 to the DK, EK, and EB.
