Notes

  • Board version documented: v2.0
  • Carries an ESP32-C61-WROOM-1 module (module record not yet in the atlas); modeled via soc: esp32-c61 rather than module: per the current data model -- cpu/radio specs come straight from the ESP32-C61 chip record, not restated here
  • Two USB Type-C ports: a UART-bridge port and the native ESP32-C61 USB 2.0 full-speed port; USB-UART bridge chip not named on the page (just "single USB-to-UART bridge chip")
  • Addressable RGB LED on GPIO8
  • J1 pin 11 is NC/GPIO14 depending on whether the module variant integrates SPI PSRAM (SPICS1 when PSRAM is present); excluded from gpio_pins/gpio_free as not guaranteed available
  • User guide states the ESP32-C61-WROOM-1 module on this board comes with up to 8 MB SPI flash and 2 MB PSRAM; no fixed value is stated for this specific board, so flash_mb/psram_mb are omitted rather than guessed
  • io.gpio_free=15 DERIVED, not quoted (SPEC-io-power.md §5.3). J1+J3 headers break out 22 definite GPIOs per the pin tables (J1: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,29; J3: 9,10,11,12,13,22,23,24,25,26,27,28 -- GPIO14 excluded as conditional). Subtracting esp32-c61's soc.reserved_pins that are exposed -- strapping {3,4,7,8,9} (5) and usb_flash_tied {12,13} (2) -- gives 22 - 5 - 2 = 15. Math not vendor-stated; verify before treating as exact.

Verify my board

Reads the connected chip over USB and checks it against what esp-atlas cites for ESP32-C61-DevKitC-1 — over Web Serial, no backend, nothing leaves your browser.

In-browser verify needs Web Serial: Chrome or Edge on a desktop. Safari, Firefox and phones cannot do it.
