The DFRobot FireBeetle series is the low-power consumption micro-controller intentionally designed for Internet of Things (IoT) projects.

The FireBeetle Board - ESP32 integrates a Dual-Core ESP-WROOM-32 module, which supports MCU and Wi-Fi & Bluetooth dual-mode communication. The electric current is just 10μA in the deep-sleep mode.

The main controller supports two power supply methods: USB and 3.7V external lithium battery. And both USB and external DC can charge the Lipo battery directly.

The FireBeetle Board-ESP32 has made a special hardware design for Arduino IDE. You can make a download without switching boot-mode manually. It supports Arduino, IDF (Linux), MicroPython etc. Moreover, FireBeetle made a pin mapping for Arduino IDE. It can be configured with Dx transport, compatible with Arduino UNO and reduce the entry barrier.

The small size and high performance make the FireBeetle the ideal solution for IOT low power consumption projects. Check out the official DFRobot page for videos, example projects and more!

Please note that developers are the most common users of FireBeetle Board-ESP32 and not all of the peripherals have examples for reference, and there are still some bugs being found and fixed. For Arduino IDE, all GPIO functions, I2C/SPI communication has been working. But the other functions are still under development. We recommend this board for experienced engineers.

FireBeetle ESP32 IoT Microcontroller

My second firebeetle, so far so good! It's capabilities way outweigh my knowledge, but it is flexible enough to be easily implemented into all of the projects I have tried so far! Great small footprint, highly functional platform for IOT.

Good microcontroller, works well. Clear pin labelling, could be clearer though, however the pins need soldering in. All in all good board for price

FireBeetle ESP32 IoT Microcontroller

So far so good. Plugged in and used with Arduino IDE right away. Have it driving the e-paper display over SPI - no problems so far. Looking forwards to trying out the super lower power hibernate modes next. And to get the LiPo battery wired in.

FireBeetle ESP32 IoT Microcontroller

I have used ESP8266, ESP32, ESP32 Feather and ESP32 Firebeetle during the development of my project, and the Firebeetle is by far the best. Easy to program with very low deep sleep current, this is the one I will be using.
