The FireBeetle 2 ESP32-C6 development board is specifically designed for low-power IoT applications and is powered by the advanced ESP32-C6 chip. It boasts a 160MHz RISC-V 32-bit processor and supports multiple communication protocols, such as Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5, Zigbee 3.0, and Thread 1.3, making it a versatile addition to any IoT network. Additionally, it offers various power supply options, including Type-C, 5V DC, and solar charging for lithium batteries, all managed by a solar power manager. This ensures efficient energy management and provides flexibility for deployment.
Multiple transmission protocol support to expand wireless connectivity
The FireBeetle 2 ESP32-C6 offers support for various communication protocols, greatly expanding wireless connectivity capabilities. With Wi-Fi and Thread protocols, it allows for the development of Matter Wi-Fi and Thread terminal devices, enabling effortless communication and cooperation between multiple systems and platforms within smart home setups. Furthermore, the board also supports BLE and Zigbee communication protocols, making it ideal for use as a Thread border router, Matter gateway, or Zigbee bridge when combined with other MCUs.

Support Wi-Fi 6 to realize ultra-low power consumption IoT devices
With Wi-Fi 6 support, the FireBeetle 2 ESP32-C6 enables the realization of ultra-low-power IoT devices. As the first Espressif chip to support the Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) protocol, it offers improved network capacity, allowing devices to operate efficiently with low latency. Moreover, Wi-Fi 6's Target Wake Time (TWT) technology effectively reduces device power consumption, extending battery life and ensuring long-lasting device performance.

Excellent power supply system makes power supply for equipment more convenient
Featuring an excellent power supply system, the FireBeetle 2 ESP32-C6 provides convenient device power options. It integrates battery charging management for lithium batteries, enabling charging via Type-C, 5V DC, and solar power. The solar charging capability resolves challenges posed by scenarios without power lines, such as balconies, windows, and rooftops. The FireBeetle 2 ESP32-C6 utilizes the same solar power management chip as the 5V@1A solar power management module, incorporating maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms to maximize the output power of the solar panel under various lighting conditions. Additionally, the FireBeetle 2 ESP32-C6 supports battery level monitoring to take necessary measures when the battery is low, ensuring continuous device operation.
