Pin1, Pin43 and Pin46 are the analog power supply pins. Pin3 and Pin4 are the power supply pins for the power amplifiers. It should be noted that the sudden increase of current, when ESP32 is in transmitting mode, may cause Espressif Systems ESP32 Hardware Design Guideline V1.0...
ESP32 can support up to four 16 MB external QSPI flash and SRAM. The demo flash used currently is an SPI flash with 4 MB ROM, in an SOIC_8 (SOP_8) package. The VDD_SDIO acts as the power supply pin. Make sure you Espressif Systems ESP32 Hardware Design Guideline V1.0...
10 pF for the 26 MHz crystal oscillator. For 40 MHz crystal oscillator, C1 ⩾ 10pF , C2 ⩽ 22pF . The accuracy of the crystal oscillator should be ±10 PPM. The operating temperature range should be from -20°C to 85°C. Figure 7: ESP32 Crystal Oscillator Espressif Systems ESP32 Hardware Design Guideline V1.0...
If the RTC source is not required, then Pin12 32K_XP and Pin13 32K_XN can be used as digital GPIO pins. 3.1.5 RF In the circuit design, a π-type matching network is essential for antenna matching. Figure 9: ESP32 RF Schematics Espressif Systems ESP32 Hardware Design Guideline V1.0...
Figure 11: ESP32 External Capacitor 3.2 PCB Layout The PCB layout design guidelines are applicable to cases when the • ESP32 module functions as a standalone device, and when the • ESP32 functions as a slave device. Espressif Systems ESP32 Hardware Design Guideline V1.0...
• There should be no vias for the input and output traces, which means that the traces cannot cross layers. • The external regulating capacitor should be placed on the near left or right side of the crystal oscillator and at the end of the clock trace. Espressif Systems ESP32 Hardware Design Guideline V1.0...
No high-frequency signal traces should be routed close to the RF trace. The RF antenna should be placed away from high-frequency transmitting devices, such as crystal oscillators, DDR, and clocks (SDIO_CLK), etc. Figure 14: ESP32 RF Espressif Systems ESP32 Hardware Design Guideline V1.0...
The current ripple has a strong impact on the RF Tx performance. It should be noted that the ripple must be tested when ESP32 is in the normal working mode. The ripple increases when the power gets high in a different mode. Espressif Systems ESP32 Hardware Design Guideline V1.0...
Rx performance. Solution: Keep the antenna away from crystal oscillators. Do not route high-frequency signal traces close to the RF trace. Please see Chapter for details. Espressif Systems ESP32 Hardware Design Guideline V1.0...
