### Size specifications

Board Dimensions: 35mm x 17.8mm
Max Thickness: 4.3mm at the USB-C end

### Each TinyC6 ships in an antistatic bag with:

Colour pinout card
Unassembled male headers
Unassembled JST PH battery connector

### Ships with CircuitPython pre-installed!

The TinyC6 ships with an early alpha version of CircuitPython that supports the ESP32-C6.

There is also Arduino support in the upcoming 3.0.0 version of the ESP32 Arduino Core (currently in alpha) and IDF support in release 5.1 and later.

**Please Note:** The ESP32-C6 doesn't have native USB - so in CircuitPython it will not present itself as a mass storage device like ESP32-S2 and ESP32-S3 devices do. To connect to the TinyC6 to access the Flash file system or for REPL access, you connect to it via the serial port like you do with an ESP32-C3 or original ESP32.

Adafruit recommend using thonny for CircuitPython development on boards that don't have native USB. Once installed, select CircuitPython from the interpreter list in options, and then select the serial port for your TinyC6.
