It has got platform indepentdent wifi driver in the TI website (http://www.ti.com/product/CC3000/toolssoftware). But i don't know how can i communicate with CC3000 to connect internet Linux kernel. I want to use this chip because it has got smartconfig application. Can you help me?

The CC3000 has its own API and does not use the TCP stack from Linux, so only special written applications can make use of it. If you want your board to connect to the Internet this is not the way.

Maybe you can make that work and you are able to communicate with the CC3000 but you still don't have have Internet on the board, only with programs special written to make use of the API

much the same as this topic.
