OpenC6 BIOS project brings PC-like firmware to ESP32-C6 MCU with network boot and OTA update support

OpenC6 BIOS is an open-source project by Rompass that takes a different approach to MCU development. It adds a BIOS-like system to the ESP32-C6, so the system part and application code can run separately rather than being combined into a single firmware image. In traditional development, hardware setup, networking, and application code are combined into a single firmware image. But the OpenC6 BIOS operates differently: it runs as the base system on the ESP32-C6 and handles hardware initialization and system functions. Instead of flashing a full application each time, it can load small payload programs separately. These payloads can run from RAM or flash (XIP) and use system functions through a simple Application Binary Interface (ABI), without needing the full firmware. In some ways, it operates like AkiraOS, but with a BIOS-like interface. Key features of the OpenC6 BIOS architecture: Dynamic CPU scaling – Adjusts CPU frequency based on load

SCINTIX P4 ESP32-P4 Compute Module works with (some) Raspberry Pi CM4/CM5 carrier boards (Crowdfunding)

SCINTIX P4 is an ESP32-P4 RISC-V Compute Module with an ESP32-C6 for wireless connectivity that's compatible with Raspberry Pi CM4/CM5 carrier boards, at least partially. It should be the first MCU-based system-on-module in Raspberry Pi CM4/CM5 form factor, and RELOC says the SCINTIX P4 gives access to displays, cameras, Ethernet, USB, and all the peripherals the ESP32-P4 exposes when connected to a carrier board. It can also be programmed in standalone mode through its built-in USB Type-C port. SCINTIX P4 (RM-CMP4) specifications: SoC - Espressif Systems ESP32-P4NRW32X  CPU Dual-core RISC-V @ 400 MHz with AI instruction extensions and single-precision FPU Single-core RISC-V LP (low-power) MCU @ up to 40 MHz GPU - 2D Pixel Processing Accelerator (PPA) VPU - H.264 and JPEG codecs support Memory - 768 KB HP L2MEM, 32 KB LP SRAM, 8 KB TCM, 32MB PSRAM Storage - 128 KB HP ROM, 16 KB LP ROM Storage

Espressif ESP32-E22 WiFi 6E module gets Wi-Fi CERTIFIED certificate, an open-source WiFi and Bluetooth Linux drivers

The ESP32-E22 tri-band Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.4 module has received a Wi-Fi CERTIFIED certificate from the Wi-Fi Alliance, and Espressif has also released WiFi and Bluetooth Linux drivers for the chip. The ESP32-E22 was first unveiled at CES 2026 with a dual-core RISC-V processor clocked at up to 500 MHz, 1MB RAM, tri-band WiFi 6E tested up to 2.1 Gbps with iperf, and dual-mode Bluetooth 5.4/6.0. While it also features 41 GPIO pins, it's not mainly designed for IoT projects, but instead targets host-based wireless systems needing WiFi 6E / Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity through PCIe 2.0 or SDIO interfaces. In other words, the ESP32-E22 will likely show on M.2 modules, competing against similar products from MediaTek and Intel. Espressif has not said which module was tested for the Wi-Fi CERTIFIED certificate, but I suspect it should be the upcoming ESP32-E22-M2-1 M.2 module listed on the company's website. From the certificate,

Bare-metal MSX2+ Emulator for ESP32-S3 offers custom LCD_CAM VGA implementation & Z80 optimizations

Ivan Svarkovsky's S3-MSX-PC open-source project implements a bare-metal MSX2+ emulator running on an ESP32-S3 microcontroller and outputting 64-color VGA via a simple R-2R resistor ladder. It's a fork of the Retro-Go emulator for ODROID-GO and other ESP32 devices, but with various optimizations. It was tested on an off-the-shelf ESP32-S3 board with one core handling the game logic and the other video and audio output. VGA is implemented through a clever resistor network that converts digital data into an analog signal that any old monitor understands, while audio relies on Sigma-Delta modulation with a multi-stage PDM filter. The USB host port on the board allows for the connection of a keyboard. S3-MSX-PC firmware highlights: Emulation Core - fMSX 6.0 — Full MSX1 / MSX2 / MSX2+ support Video Output VGA 640×480@60Hz, 16-bit parallel RGB via LCD_CAM Color Depth - 64 colors (2 bits per channel: R, G, B) Audio - PDM Stereo
