M5AtomLiteS3

It creates a naked M5AtomLiteS3. That is you do not need to drag and drop the drivers for the features of the device. You will upload a config file and you are done. 

The M5AtomLiteS3 has a little more RAM then the M5AtomLite but a lot more flash(8MB). It will run OTA. If you have memory hungry applications you may want to consider the M5Core2.
