Apple has recently released a beta version of Embedded Swift programming language that is said to work with ESP32-C6, Pi RP2040, STM32F7, and nRF52840 microcontrollers. Additionally, the company has also developed example codes for matter protocol based on ESP-IDF and ESP-Matter SDKs...

Waveshare has recently launched a new ESP32-C6-Pico Board that has a similar form factor to the Raspberry Pi Pico. However, instead of an RP2040 chip, the board is built around an ESP32-C6-MINI-1 module. This little tweak makes the board compatible with a series of Waveshare LED...

Arduino has just announced their new Arduino Nano Matter Board, powered by a SiLabs MGM240SD22VNA MPU. The MPU features a 32-bit Arm Cortex-M33 core with DSP and FPU, enhancing its performance. The board supports various connectivity options, including Matter, OpenThread, BLE, and...

ThingPulse has recently released the ePulse Feather C6, an ESP32-C6-based development board with WiFi 6, BLE5, Zigbee, Thread, and Matter connectivity. In my personal opinion, the “Feather” came from the Adafruit Feather as this board resembles the Adafruit form factor....

The SparkFun ESP32-C6 Thing Plus features the ESP32-C6 WROOM-1-N16 module, supporting WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, Zigbee, and Thread for diverse wireless project applications. Equipped with a microSD slot, Qwiic connector, and Feather-compatible footprint, it's designed for seamless...

Arduino and Silicon Labs are teaming up to make it easier to use the Matter protocol for IoT devices. This project will happen in two phases. The first phase, which took place at CES 2024, involved the release of a user-friendly Arduino library for the Matter protocol, along with a new...

Espressif Systems recently launched the ESP32-C61, an advanced System-on-Chip (SoC) with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5 (LE). Building on its predecessors like ESP32-C2 and ESP32-C3, it shares similar specifications but adds support for BLE Mesh 1.1 protocol and faster Quad SPI PSRAM,...

Arduino and Silicon Labs are working together to support Matter, a standard for smart home devices. They are creating a new core (software foundation) and library following Matter standards. This effort is designed to make it easier for everyone to be part of the Matter...
