The M5GO IoT Starter Kit is a cost-effective IoT starter development kit. The kit contains Core Controller M5GO + 6 expansion units with different functions (sensors/actuators/splitters).

The core controller M5GO adopts Espressif ESP32 chip, equipped with 2 low-power Xtensa® 32-bit LX6 microprocessors, with a main frequency of 240MHz. With 16M FLASH memory for larger program size.

Besides its power, the MCU also supports Wi-Fi & Bluetooth dual-mode, which can be used to build smart wearable devices, smart homes and other applications.

Features

  • Based on ESP32 development
  • 16M FLASH
  • Integrated HD IPS display panel with various hardware peripherals
  • Rich resources interface, compatible with M5Stack stacking modules and sensors, Strong expandability
  • The base is compatible with 8mm size LEGO blocks, the structures just so interesting!
  • Microsoft Azure authentication device
  • Compatible with multi-platform development:

Driver Installation

Click the link below to download the driver that matches the operating system.

There are currently two driver chip versions, CP210X (for CP2104 version)/CP34X (for CH9102 version) driver compressed package. After decompressing the compressed package, select the installation package corresponding to the number of operating systems to install.

If you are not sure which USB chip your device uses, you can install two drivers at the same time. During the installation process of CH9102_VCP_SER_MacOS, an error may occur, but the installation is actually completed, just ignore it.
