The FireBeetle 2 ESP32-C6 is a low-power IoT (Internet of Things) controller board designed based on the ESP32-C6 chip, making it suitable for smart home projects. The ESP32-C6 features a high-performance 160MHz RISC-V 32-bit processor, supporting communication protocols such as Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5, Zigbee 3.0, and Thread 1.3. This enables seamless integration intoIoT networks with various communication protocols.The FireBeetle 2 ESP32-C6 supports multiple power supply options, including Type-C, 5V DC, and solar charging for lithium batteries managed by a solar power manager, which optimizes the power usage and ensures efficient energy management, providing a range of choices for deployment.
Multiple transmission protocol support to expand wireless connectivity
Boasting support for multiple communication protocols, the FireBeetle 2 ESP32-C6 expands wireless connectivity options. By supporting Wi-Fi and Thread protocols, it enables the creation of Matter Wi-Fi terminal devices and Matter Thread terminal devices, facilitating seamless communication and collaboration among multiple systems and platforms in smart home setups. Additionally, the FireBeetle 2 ESP32-C6 supports BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) and Zigbee communication protocols, making it suitable 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, and it is able to maximize the current output capability of the input power source.Additionally, the FireBeetle 2 ESP32-C6 supports battery level monitoring to take necessary measures when the battery is low, ensuring continuous device operation.
