Waveshare has recently launched a new ESP32-C6-Pico Board that has a similar form factor to the Raspberry Pi Pico. However, instead of an RP2040 chip, the board is built around an ESP32-C6-MINI-1 module. This little tweak makes the board compatible with a series of Waveshare LED...

Arduino has just announced their new Arduino Nano Matter Board, powered by a SiLabs MGM240SD22VNA MPU. The MPU features a 32-bit Arm Cortex-M33 core with DSP and FPU, enhancing its performance. The board supports various connectivity options, including Matter, OpenThread, BLE, and...

ThingPulse has recently released the ePulse Feather C6, an ESP32-C6-based development board with WiFi 6, BLE5, Zigbee, Thread, and Matter connectivity. In my personal opinion, the “Feather” came from the Adafruit Feather as this board resembles the Adafruit form factor....

The Beetle ESP32-C6 Board is a tiny Arduino IoT board with an ESP32-C6 160MHz RISC-V processor, with support for Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5, Zigbee 3.0, and Thread 1.3. It's designed for Matter terminal devices and includes integrated battery charging, which makes it ideal for compact,...

DFRobot launched a new and improved FireBeetle 2 development board. This version has the latest ESP32-C6 chip from Espressif Systems, providing standard input/output options, battery support, and advanced connections with Zigbee 3.0 and Thread 1.3. Unlike the previous FireBeetle 2...

Arduino and Silicon Labs are teaming up to make it easier to use the Matter protocol for IoT devices. This project will happen in two phases. The first phase, which took place at CES 2024, involved the release of a user-friendly Arduino library for the Matter protocol, along with a new...

The LILYGO T-Panel is a compact module that works as both a display and a control center for smart devices. It has a 4-inch screen and can connect to WiFi and Bluetooth. It also supports smart home standards like Zigbee, Thread, and Matter. Plus, it has options for adding more...

Espressif Systems recently launched the ESP32-C61, an advanced System-on-Chip (SoC) with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5 (LE). Building on its predecessors like ESP32-C2 and ESP32-C3, it shares similar specifications but adds support for BLE Mesh 1.1 protocol and faster Quad SPI PSRAM,...
