M5Stack M5GO IoT Starter Kit V2.7

Description

M5GO IoT Kit v2.7 is a high cost-performance entry-level IoT development kit. The kit includes a Core Controller M5GO plus 6 expansion units with different functions (sensors / actuators / splitter). The core controller M5GO adopts the Espressif ESP32 chip, equipped with two low-power Xtensa® 32-bit LX6 microprocessors, with a main frequency of up to 240MHz. It features an onboard 16MB Flash large-capacity memory, capable of accommodating larger program sizes. While boasting powerful hardware performance, this MCU also supports Wi-Fi, enabling the development of applications such as smart wearables and smart home solutions.
