ESP32-C5-WROOM-1-N4
Overview
The ESP32-C5-WROOM-1-N4 is a highly integrated multiprotocol module featuring a 240 MHz single-core RISC-V processor with 4 MB of flash and 384 KB of RAM. It is Espressif's first dual-band Wi-Fi 6 solution, supporting both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands alongside Bluetooth 5 (LE), Zigbee, and Thread for comprehensive IoT connectivity.
Why Choose This Part
The module provides superior interference immunity by supporting the 5 GHz spectrum and Wi-Fi 6 OFDMA technology. Integrated hardware security features, including RSA-3072 based secure boot and AES-256-XTS flash encryption, ensure robust protection for connected deployments.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Developers can use the Espressif IoT Development Framework (ESP-IDF), which provides comprehensive drivers for the RISC-V core and the Wi-Fi 6 stack. The module supports flashing and debugging via the integrated USB Serial/JTAG controller, requiring only a simple USB connection for firmware development.
Dev Boards
Development boards and breakout modules featuring the ESP32-C5-WROOM-1-N4 or compatible chips — ready to use for prototyping.
Also Consider
Espressif Systems
- Alternative Wi-Fi 6 and Matter-ready module if 5 GHz support is not required and 2.4 GHz suffices.
Espressif Systems
- Offers dual-core performance and AI acceleration for applications requiring more processing power than the single-core C5.
Espressif Systems
- A cost-effective, legacy alternative for applications that only require 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi 4 and Classic Bluetooth.
