Compatibility of Gravity: IO Shield for FireBeetle 2 DFR0762

userHead Farm Urban 2025-09-06 17:06:11 625 Views3 Replies

I've been using the IO Expansion Shield for FireBeetle 2 DFR0762 with the FireBeetle 2 ESP32-E IoT Microcontroller and am very happy with it.

 

I'd now like to try using Zigbee as the communication mechanism, so would like to try using the ESP32 C5 or ESP32 C6. The product wiki for the DFR0762 mentions it's compatible with the Firebeetle 2 series, but only specifically mentions the M0 and ESP32-E. 

 

Can someone confirm that it will also be compatible with the C5 and C6 too?

I have the same question, so in does the IO Expansion Shield for FireBeetle 2 DFR0762 also work with the https://wiki.dfrobot.com/SKU_DFR1075_FireBeetle_2_Board_ESP32_C6

 

It reads like yes but mentioned is only M0 and ESP32-E

 

tnx tk

Hello @ahsrab.rifat. Thanks for your reply.

 

That's what I'm asking; I know that ESP32-C5 and ESP32-C6 support Zigbee protocols, I'd like to know if the DFR0762 IO Expansion Shield is compatible with these boards?

For Zigbee communication, both the ESP32-C5 and ESP32-C6 support Zigbee protocols. However, you may need to use alternative expansion boards or modules that are compatible with these chips to facilitate Zigbee communication.
