ESP32-C3 Features

ESP32-C3 is a single-core Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5 (LE) microcontroller SoC, based on the open-source RISC-V architecture. It strikes the right balance of power, I/O capabilities and security, thus offering the optimal cost-effective solution for connected devices. The availability of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5 (LE) connectivity not only makes the device configuration easy, but it also facilitates a variety of use-cases based on dual connectivity.

The features include the following:

  • 32-bit core RISC-V microcontroller with a maximum clock speed of 160 MHz

  • 802.11b/g/n/

  • A Bluetooth LE subsystem that supports features of Bluetooth 5 and Bluetooth Mesh

  • 384 KB ROM

  • 400 KB SRAM (16 KB for cache)

  • 8 KB SRAM in RTC

  • 22 x programmable GPIOs

  • Various peripherals:

    • Full-speed USB Serial/JTAG controller
    • TWAI® compatible with CAN bus 2.0
    • General DMA controller (GDMA)
    • 2x 12-bit SAR ADC with up to 6 channels
    • 3x SPI
    • 2x UART
    • 1x I2S
    • 1x I2C
    • 2 x 54-bit general-purpose timers
    • 3 x watchdog timers
    • 1 x 52-bit system timer
    • Remote Control Peripheral (RMT)
    • LED PWM controller (LEDC) with up to 6 channels
    • Temperature sensor
  • Cryptographic hardware acceleration (RNG, ECC, RSA, SHA-2, AES)
