  * High Quality Reset and Bootloader button for easy access

### Bootloader and Programming

The Glyph-C6 features a built-in USB bootloader that makes programming new firmware easy and keeps the cost of the board down. On first time use, hold down the BOOT button while plugging it into USB, and it will appear as COM PORT in your device Manager. If you face any issue related to hardware not detecting on your system, please check out our troubleshooting guide [here](https://learn.pcbcupid.com/boards/needs/arduino-ide-setup#hardware-not-detecting).

### Connectivity

Featuring built-in Bluetooth, Thread, Zigbee and Wi-Fi the ESP32-C6 Glyph excels in connectivity, ideal for IoT applications requiring reliable wireless communication.

### Development Support

The Glyph C3 is supported by a variety of development environments, including:

* **Arduino**
* **MicroPython**
* **ESP-IDF (Espressif IoT Development Framework)**

<div style={{ textAlign: "center" }}>

</div>

With extensive library support and a large community, getting started with the Glyph-C6 is straightforward.

### Memory and Storage

While the Glyph C6 has 512KB onboard SRAM, it also relies on an external flash chip for program storage. On this board, there is 4 MB of flash memory, which is shared between the code, file storage and OTA.

### C6 Chip Features

* **BluFi**
* **RF Coexistence**
* **ESP-BLE-MESH**
* **ESP-WIFI-MESH**
