Description

CoreS3-Lite is a programmable IoT controller packed with rich peripherals. Powered by an ESP32-S3 at its core, it features a 240 MHz Xtensa® 32-bit LX7 dual-core processor with 16 MB Flash and 8 MB PSRAM on board.
On the front, a 2.0″ capacitive touch IPS display is integrated, along with a 0.3 MP GC0308 camera and an LTR-553ALS-WA proximity/ambient-light sensor, enabling basic face-detection and recognition applications.
The built-in BMI270 6-axis IMU plus BMM150 3-axis magnetometer provide additional interaction possibilities.
With the AXP2101 power-management IC and BM8563 RTC, the device supports real-time power monitoring and low-power timed wake-up.
For audio interaction, it offers a high-fidelity 16-bit I2S amplifier AW88298 paired with a 1 W speaker, and a full-duplex audio solution based on the ES7210 codec with dual-microphone input.
A microSD card slot is included for development and data storage.
The unit contains a 200 mAh LiPo battery and adopts a magnetic back cover for easy mounting and fixation.
Typical scenarios include smart-home control, desktop robot companions, and more.
