Generate a perfectly fitted, 3D-printable case for your Espressif ESP32-C6-DevKitC-1. Verified 60x25.4mm base dimensions with Above-board accommodates the ESP32 module's metal can (~3mm) plus pin header height (~11mm populated).
ESP32 dissipates 250-500mW in active WiFi/BT modes; the metal module can can handle this without active cooling. Airflow recommended only for continuous transmit applications (mesh gateways) where sustained current pushes the LDO into warm territory.
Low thermal load permits PLA for prototype and indoor use. PETG is preferred for any installation with potential sunlight exposure (UV degrades PLA in months). ABS for integration into larger chemical-bonded assemblies.
PCB-trace WiFi/BT antenna lives on one short edge (opposite USB) — ≥10mm metal-free keepout required. No iron, carbon, or metal-flake filaments within that zone.
USB connector is the only programming path — MUST remain accessible. Right-angle USB adapters can fit in tight enclosures if bench access is not expected.
Boot button + Reset button are on-board — provide plunger access or pre-flash before sealing if firmware updates won't happen in-service.
Dual-row pin headers are breadboard-compatible but stick up ~8-11mm — enclosure top must clear the header OR provide a pass-through aperture.
EN pin + BOOT pin are sometimes routed to the pin header; if the user's project connects external circuitry to these pins, enclosure routing should preserve access.
