Perfect for Wi-Fi 6 IoT Projects
This board is exactly what I needed for my latest smart home project. The Wi-Fi 6 support is stable, and the RISC-V architecture handles multitasking well. Setup with ESP-IDF was seamless.

Excellent for Learning
As a student learning embedded systems, this board is affordable and powerful. It supports MicroPython out of the box, which makes prototyping ideas very quick and easy.

Solid industrial prototype board
Used this for a preliminary industrial sensor node test. The thermal performance is good even under continuous load. Would prefer a dedicated reset button placement, but overall very satisfied.

Great value, minor documentation gaps
Hardware quality is excellent and the USB-C port is a nice touch. Pinout mapping could be clearer in the wiki, but once figured out, it works flawlessly with Zigbee protocols.

Reliable and Fast
Switched from an older ESP32 model to this C6 version. The power efficiency is noticeably better, and the Bluetooth LE connection is very robust. Highly recommend for battery-powered devices.
Q: Does this board support Matter protocol?
A: Yes, the ESP32-C6 chip supports the Matter protocol over Wi-Fi and Thread, making it suitable for modern smart home ecosystems.
Q: Are the GPIO pins 5V tolerant?
A: No, the GPIO pins are not 5V tolerant. They operate at 3.3V logic levels. Connecting them directly to 5V signals may damage the board; please use a level shifter if interfacing with 5V devices.
Q: Can I power this directly from a 3.7V LiPo battery?
A: While the logic is 3.3V, we recommend using a 5V source via the USB-C or VIN pin and letting the onboard regulator handle it, or ensuring your 3.7V source is regulated properly to avoid brownouts during Wi-Fi transmission.
Q: Is the U.FL connector enabled by default?
A: The board comes with an onboard PCB antenna active by default. To use the U.FL connector for an external antenna, you may need to move a specific 0-ohm resistor as detailed in the schematic.
Q: What debugger interface does this use?
A: It uses the built-in USB Serial/JTAG controller within the ESP32-C6, so no external programmer is needed for flashing or debugging via USB-C.
