(Safe pins, ADC, I²C, SPI, UART, RGB LED) The ESP32-C3-DevKitM-1 is Espressif’s tiny RISC-V dev board based on the ESP32-C3-MINI-1 / MINI-1U module – a very compact Wi-Fi + BLE module with 4 MB flash. It’s designed to plug into…
(Safe pins, ADC, I²C, SPI, UART, LED) The ESP32-C3-DevKitC-02 is Espressif’s small RISC-V dev board based on the ESP32-C3-WROOM-02 module (4 MB flash, Wi-Fi + BLE). Almost all useful GPIOs are broken out on the two headers J1 and J3.…
(Safe Pins, ADC, I²C, SPI – and why there is no touch) ESP32-C2 is the small brother in the ESP32 family: Wi-Fi 4 + BLE 5, RISC-V core at up to 120 MHz, and only 14 GPIOs – the ESP8684…
This project shows how to do a simple LoRa “Hello World” send & receive test using two TTGO LoRa32 (SX1276) boards with built-in 0.96″ SSD1306 OLED displays. We’ll configure one board as a sender, which sends a counter every second,…
The ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1 has a lot of GPIOs, but not every pin is equally convenient to use. Some pins affect boot, some are shared with native USB or debugging, and GPIO35–37 may be unavailable depending on the flash and PSRAM configuration…
The ESP32-S2-DevKitC-1 is Espressif’s entry-level development board for the ESP32-S2 – a single-core Wi-Fi microcontroller with native USB, 43 GPIOs, ADC, DAC, touch, and a rich set of peripherals. This guide focuses on pinout and GPIO selection for the DevKitC-1,…
1. ESP32 DevKit / ESP-WROOM-32 Overview The ESP32-WROOM-32 module exposes up to 32 GPIO pins, plus power, enable and boot configuration pins. These GPIOs are highly multiplexed: the same pin can often be used as digital I/O, ADC, touch, I²C,…
There are now many ESP32 versions, but choosing one is easier than the model numbers make it look. For most projects, buy an ESP32-S3 development board with PSRAM. For more specialised projects: Espressif’s current product range now includes the original…
I²C is one of the easiest ways to send data between microcontrollers. ESP32 and ESP8266 both support hardware I²C, and you can connect them directly using just two wires: SDA and SCL and common GND. This guide shows a complete…
ESP-NOW is a fast, connectionless communication protocol developed by Espressif. It allows ESP32 boards to exchange small packets (up to 250 bytes) with extremely low latency and very little overhead — perfect for sensors, dashboards, wireless controllers, and battery-powered devices.…
