Adafruit AirLift Shield - ESP32 WiFi Co-Processor

Elevate your Arduino project with the Adafruit AirLift Shield, enabling seamless WiFi integration via the robust ESP32 co-processor. Perfect for enhancing your Metro M4 or Metro 328, this shield offers effortless internet connectivity, even with advanced TLS/SSL encryption.

The ESP32 handles complex networking tasks, simplifying your code and eliminating the need for SSL libraries. Experience high-speed data transfer using 8MHz SPI and enjoy compatibility with any 3V or 5V Arduino model. While the ATmega328 supports basic functions, for optimal performance, pair with an M0 or M4 chipset.

Our design includes a micro SD card socket for Internet data management, plus a tri-state chip for SPI bus sharing. Note: ATmega328 can't simultaneously run the WiFi and SD library due to RAM constraints. Pre-assembled and equipped with ESP32 SPI WiFi firmware, this shield supports both Arduino and CircuitPython projects seamlessly.

Comes with headers for versatile connectivity options, ideal for those working beyond Metro M4 Airlift models with pre-existing WiFi. Enterprise WiFi support is yet pending, but our guide provides valuable resources to get you started swiftly.
