AX210 Wi-fi platform hardware guide

[Dickmali]

Hello,

I am developing a hardware platform with 4x AX210 M.2230 Wi-fi modules. On the system, only the Wi-fi capability is required (no BT, no AMT). In data sheet, it is specified the wi-fi can be used via PCIe interface.

Questions:

(1) Is connecting one lane of PCIe sufficient to access all the capability of the wi-fi module? (CLINK, I2C and other M.2 signals will not be connected to the processor: NC or PU/PD only)

(2) If (1) is true, does it mean module configuration and control can be done by SW via PCIe lane instead of separate sideband signals?

(3) Is there platform hardware guide document available? The information from data sheet might not be sufficient for platform hardware development.

Thank You.
