2. Schematic Checklist and PCB Layout Design
2.1.1.2 Analog Power Supply
Pin1, pin3, pin4, pin43 and pin46 are the analog power supply pins. It should be noted that the sudden increase
in current draw, when ESP32 is in transmission mode, may cause a power rail collapse. Therefore, it is highly
recommended to add another 10 µF capacitor to the power trace, which can work in conjunction with the 0.1 µF
capacitor. LC filter circuit needs to be added near the power pin so as to suppress high-frequency harmonics.
The inductor's rated current is preferably 500 mA and above.

Notice:
• The recommended voltage of the power supply for ESP32 is 3.3 V, and its recommended output current is 500 mA
or more.
• It is suggested that users add an ESD tube at the power entrance.
2.1.2 Power-on Sequence and System Reset
2.1.2.1 Power-on Sequence
ESP32 uses a 3.3 V system power supply. The chip should be activated after the power rails have stabilized. This
is achieved by delaying the activation of CHIP_PU (Pin9) after the 3.3 V rails have been brought up. More details
can be found in section Power Scheme in
Notice:
If CHIP_PU is driven by a power management chip, then the power management chip controls the ESP32 power
state. When the power management chip turns on/off Wi-Fi through the high/low level on GPIO, a pulse current
may be generated. To avoid level instability on CHIP_PU, an RC delay circuit is required.
2.1.2.2 Reset
CHIP_PU serves as the reset pin of ESP32. The input level (V
and remain so for a period of time. More details can be found in section Power Scheme in
