Common Core - ESP32C6

The ESP32C6 is a powerful microcontroller from Espressif, designed to support advanced IoT applications. It features Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.0, and Thread/Zigbee protocols, offering robust wireless connectivity and efficiency. With enhanced processing power, low power consumption, and strong security features like WPA3, the ESP32C6 is ideal for applications requiring high performance and reliable wireless communication. Its versatile nature makes it well-suited for smart homes, industrial automation, and other IoT solutions where connectivity, security, and efficiency are key.

​Key Features
​All PebblePower devices have these common features:

Open Design

Our products are specifically designed to be open and all details are made available such that they can be used for a variety of different use cases and industries.

Flexibility

We have gone to great lengths to provide as much connectivity and flexibility as possible to help reduce solution development and deployment timescales. 

Communications

We specifically selected the ESP32C6 as it enables all the latest communication standards such as WiFi6, Thread and we have added CANBUS to allow deployment into almost any environment.

Testing & Support

All of our devices have been fully testing using ESPHome and various other firmware options. Our primary objective is to support open source firmware with more detail features being made available used our in-house developed firmware.
