M5Stack Capsule v1.1

M5Stack Capsule v1.1 is an iterative upgrade of the capsule, with the core upgrade being the replacement of the main controller from Stamp-S3 to Stamp-S3A. This device integrates sensing acquisition, power supply, data storage, and the main controller drive into one unified function. The Capsule v1.1 features a high-performance BMI270 Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) for precise motion trajectory tracking and attitude control. This device incorporates an SPM1423 microphone that supports audio recording, voice recognition, and voice wake-up functions, as well as an infrared sensor for remote control operation. The Capsule v1.1 offers a power configuration that includes a built-in 250mAh battery and supports external expansion batteries to ensure stable, long-term operation. This device provides an onboard microSD card slot for flexible storage expansion, meeting data logging and media file storage needs.

The Capsule v1.1 is equipped with an RTC8563 real-time clock module, which provides accurate time and date information and supports timed wake-ups, thereby enabling low-power operation. This device can be applied to IoT setups, embedded development, environmental sensing monitoring, smart terminal data collection, and various project scenarios.
