Embedded Internet Development from CCS

The 5.0 Volt EZ Web Lynx is a compact device, smaller than a 9V battery, that packs a punch of power and capabilities.

Design. Connect. Realize with EZ Web Lynx. "The EZ Web Lynx module can easily be added to any existing electronic design to gain Ethernet capability, reducing development and engineering time."

EZ Web Lynx has the capability to upload custom web pages, view the condition of 11 programmable I/O pins, change the device settings and view incoming data. EZ Web Lynx can even send event-driven or status e-mails. The power of versatility present in EZ Web Lynx can drastically cut development time and cost. It is easy to integrate into new or existing products, making it ready-to-use.

CCS, Inc. offers a wide variety of C Embedded Development Tools for Windows or Linux that support the Microchip Embedded Devices.
