micro arduino and w5100

Question

I would like to ask if it is possible and how to connect the following module http://www.ebay.com/itm/TOP-Mini-W5100-LAN-Ethernet-Shield-Network-Module-board-for-Arduino-Best-NEW-/251981053942?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3aab3dbff6

to the arduino micro

I found some pin layouts but only for Leonardo or Ethernet shield, Uno etc.

Also I've choosen this model because it can be programmed directly in arduino using Sockets API

Answer 1

While it would have been nice to see your research rather then having to spend some time finding this information myself, I did find this http://www.instructables.com/id/Add-Ethernet-to-any-Arduino-project-for-less-than-/ from what I can see this should be compatible to any arduino as long as it has 3 volt pin and 4 i/o pins. While the arduino micro doesn't have a 3v3 pin, as far as I know, that shouldn't be an issue as long as you can drop the voltage from the 5 volt pin, this module should work for you.

• kg_root: actually I though the same but wanted to be sure and ask. Maybe someone knew more!
