Description

The SparkFun DEV-22925 Qwiic Pocket microcontroller board contains a ESP32-C6-MINI-1 module with an ESP32-C3 SoCSystem On a Chip, 4MB flash memory, and PCB antenna that provides 2.4GHz WiFi 6 in STAA WiFi Station (STA) is a device that has the capability to connect to an existing WiFi network as a client in the same way other devices, such as smartphones or computers, join an established network and communicate with other devices on that network or access the internet. mode, 802.11IEEE 802.11 is a set of protocol standards that define communication for a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). In order for WiFi to work between different devices, they all need to agree on how they are going to communicate. The current version of the standard is IEEE 802.11-2007, with many amendments such as 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n.b/g/n WiFi in APA WiFi Access Point (AP) is a device that creates a wireless local area network, or WLAN, and acts as a central hub that allows other devices, such as smartphones or computers, to connect to it over WiFi./STAA WiFi Station (STA) is a device that has the capability to connect to an existing WiFi network as a client in the same way other devices, such as smartphones or computers, join an established network and communicate with other devices on that network or access the internet./AP+STAA WiFi device in AP+STA mode acts as both an Access Point (AP) as well as a Station (STA), where the device can connect to an existing network as a client (STA) while simultaneously hosting its own network (AP) for other devices to connect to. modes, Bluetooth 5 (BLEBluetooth Low Energy), and 802.15.4 radio (Zigbee & Thread).

The ESP32-C6 SoC (Datasheet PDF) has a High Performance (HP) 32-Bit RISC-VReduced Instruction Set Computer 5 (RISC-V, pronounced "risk-five") is the 5th generation of processors built on RISC principles, with a modular, extensible, open standard Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) provided under royalty-free open-source licenses. Single-Core 160MHz CPU and a Low Power (LP) 32-bit RISC-V Single-Core 20MHz CPU.

A USB-C connector is used for power and data transfer. The board can also be powered using the 2-pin JSTJapan Solderless Terminal connector with a LiPoLithium Polymer battery. When the USB is powered, it will automatically switch over to USB for power and start charging the battery (if attached) using the MCP73831 battery charger chip with a 213mA charge rate at 3.3V.

The board comes with a reset button, boot button, and 3 LEDLight Emitting Diodes:

PWR - Red Power LED
CHG - Yellow Battery Charging Indicator LED
STAT - Blue Status LED

There are 12 Pin Through holes (6 on each side of the board) with 0.1" (2.54mm) spacing. The I/OInput/Output pins are 3.3V max and include:

23x Multifunctional GPIOGeneral Purpose Input Output (including PWMPulse-Width Modulation)
7x analog inputs with 12-bit ADCAnalog-to-Digital Converter (ADC, A/D, or A-to-D)
2x UARTUniversal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitter and 1x Low Power UART
1x I2CInter-Integrated Circuit. Also referred to as IIC or I²C. (PTHPin Through Hole and QwiicQwiic connectors are SparkFun's name for 4-pin JST SH connectors with 1.0mm pitch. These connectors were implemented on SparkFun boards to make it easy to plug-n-play various sensors and devices without soldering and wiring. Qwiic is cross-compatible with Adafruit's STEMMA QT connectors. connector) and 1x Low Power I2C
