ESP32-C61 Embedded Systems Programming: Build Practical with RISC-V, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth LE, and ESP-IDF

Build Real Embedded Systems with the ESP32-C61The ESP32-C61 brings together a RISC-V processor, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth Low Energy, and a broad range of embedded peripherals in a compact platform. But learning the chip is about more than copying example code.ESP32-C61 Embedded Systems Programming takes a practical, build-oriented approach to modern embedded development with ESP-IDF. You will move from your first firmware project to increasingly sophisticated systems while learning how the hardware, firmware, real-time operating system, and wireless interfaces work together.Starting with ESP32-C61 architecture, RISC-V fundamentals, and ESP-IDF, the book progressively covers GPIO, timers, PWM, ADC, UART, I²C, SPI, FreeRTOS, memory management, Wi-Fi 6, network programming, Bluetooth LE, wireless provisioning, power management, debugging, security, and firmware deployment.Throughout the book, practical Build-Alongs turn concepts into working systems. You will build controllers, sensor interfaces, multitasking applications, Wi-Fi devices, web servers, BLE devices, low-power wireless systems, and production-ready firmware. Inside the Book - Understand the ESP32-C61 and its RISC-V architecture - Set up and use the ESP-IDF development environment - Write embedded C firmware for the ESP32-C61 - Control GPIO, timers, PWM, and ADC peripherals - Communicate with hardware using UART, I²C, and SPI - Build multitasking applications with FreeRTOS - Manage memory, flash storage, and persistent configuration - Develop Wi-Fi 6 applications with ESP-IDF - Build TCP/IP, HTTP, and web-based embedded applications - Develop Bluetooth Low Energy applications - Combine Wi-Fi and BLE in connected systems - Design low-power and battery-aware firmware - Debug crashes, communication problems, and firmware failures - Explore embedded security and OTA firmware updates - Bring everything together in a complete ESP32-C61 embedded system Whether you are a computer engineering student, embedded developer, firmware programmer, electronics enthusiast, or RISC-V developer, this book gives you a practical path from understanding the ESP32-C61 to building complete embedded applications.Don't just learn what the ESP32-C61 can do. Learn how to build with it.
