M5Stack CoreS3-Lite Development Kit

M5Stack CoreS3-Lite Development Kit is a programmable IoT controller packed with rich peripherals and powered by an ESP32-S3 at its core. This device features a 240MHz Xtensa® 32-bit LX7 dual-core processor with 16MB flash and 8MB PSRAM on board. The CoreS3-Lite kit integrates a 2.0" capacitive touch IPS display with a 0.3MP GC0308 camera and an LTR-553ALS-WA proximity/ambient-light sensor. This kit includes a built-in BMI270 6-axis IMU, BMM150 3-axis magnetometer, an AXP2101 PMIC, and a BM8563 RTC that supports real-time power monitoring and low-power timed wake-up.

The CoreS3-Lite kit offers a high-fidelity 16-bit I2S amplifier AW88298 paired with a 1W speaker and a full-duplex audio solution based on the ES7210 codec with dual microphone input. Typical applications include DIY project development, smart-home systems, desktop voice assistants, educational interactive robots, and industrial equipment status monitors.
