ESP32-C61-DevKitC-1-N8R2
Overview
ESP32-C61-DevKitC-1-N8R2 is an Espressif development board built around the ESP32-C61-WROOM-1 module. It is intended for evaluating the ESP32-C61 platform and prototyping Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Low Energy applications with onboard flash and PSRAM. The board gives engineers a convenient way to get started with Espressif's wireless MCU ecosystem.
Why Choose This Part
The board combines a ready-to-use module with wireless connectivity, onboard flash, and PSRAM, which reduces the amount of external hardware needed for early development. Using an Espressif DevKit form factor makes it straightforward to power, program, and prototype with common development tools. It is a practical choice when you want to evaluate the ESP32-C61 family without designing custom RF hardware first.
Applications
Getting Started
Use Espressif's ESP-IDF as the primary development framework, and the board is also commonly supported through Arduino-style workflows depending on the software stack you choose. Start with the vendor's getting-started guide for board-specific USB, boot, and flash procedures, then confirm the correct serial port and board target in your IDE. For first bring-up, test a simple GPIO blink or Wi-Fi scan example before moving to your application firmware.
