The Beetle ESP32-C6 is a trailblazer in the world of IoT development boards, packing powerful features into a compact design that's no bigger than a coin. It's powered by a robust 160MHz RISC-V 32-bit processor and supports a spectrum of communication protocols such as Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5, Zigbee 3.0, Thread 1.3, and the Matter protocol. This versatility makes it a solid choice for diverse IoT networks, streamlining connectivity like never before. Imagine a mini powerhouse that integrates seamlessly into projects, turning ambitious ideas into actionable projects.
One of the standout features of the Beetle ESP32-C6 is its high integration with a remarkably small footprint. This tiny board offers up to 13 IO ports, which means no more wrestling with inadequate connectivity during prototype development. It doesn't stop there; by incorporating lithium battery charging management, this device assures safe and efficient battery charging without needing additional modules. This not only saves space but ensures you can create more compact and practical devices, particularly for wearable tech applications where every millimeter counts.
When it comes to connectivity, the Beetle ESP32-C6 is unparalleled, supporting a myriad of communication protocols that broaden its wireless communication possibilities. Whether you're building a Matter Wi-Fi terminal or a Thread terminal device, this board ensures seamless interaction and collaboration across varied systems within smart home environments. By also supporting BLE, Zigbee, and the newly included Matter, it establishes itself as a reliable Thread border router, Matter gateway, or Zigbee bridge when paired with other devices, showcasing its all-encompassing adaptability in the IoT realm.
The leap to Wi-Fi 6 places the Beetle ESP32-C6 at the forefront of developing low-power IoT devices. As the first in the Espressif lineup to support the Wi-Fi 6 protocol, it enhances network efficiency, allowing for improved capacity and minimal latency. Aiding in this is the Target Wake Time (TWT) technology, which plays a critical role in reducing power consumption. This translates to longer battery life and better performance over extended periods, meaning your device can go the distance without frequent charging interruptions.
