ESP32 Forum

I have only ESP32-C6 left in the application selector, but if I check then "Ethernet" in the peripherals filter, then all of them disappear.

On the other hand the ESP IDF Ethernet example shows the ESP32-C6 as supported target.

Does the ESP32-C6 support to connect an Ethernet PHY to it?

Hi Michael,

the trick is the ESP32-C6 does not have internal EMAC with MII/RMII. Therefore it's not shown in the selector. However, you can connect SPI Ethernet module to it. That's the reason why Ethernet examples support even these targets without internal EMAC. The only chips with internal EMAC are ESP32 and ESP32P4.

If you have any additional question, don't hesitate to ask.

Ondrej

Thanks for the feedback, this explains it.

Why didn't you approve my second topic regarding the forum search issue?

I'm responsible for Ethernet so I usually seek for Ethernet related topics here on forum. Therefore I simply missed it since it's been related to forum functionality... Approved now.
