The ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1 is an entry-level development board equipped with ESP32-S3-WROOM-1, a general-purpose Wi-Fi + Bluetooth® LE MCU module that integrates complete Wi-Fi and Bluetooth LE functions. Most of the I/O pins on the module are broken out to the pin headers on both sides of this board for easy interfacing. Developers can either connect peripherals with jumper wires or mount ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1 on a breadboard. ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 is a powerful, generic Wi-Fi+ Bluetooth LE MCU module built around the ESP32-S3 series of SoCs. On top of a rich set of peripherals, the acceleration for neural network computing and signal processing workloads provided by the SoC makes the module an ideal choice for a wide variety of application scenarios related to Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT), such as wake word detection, speech commands recognition, face detection, and recognition, smart home, smart appliances, smart control panel, smart speaker, etc. Description of Components Key Component Description ESP32-S3-WROOM-1/1U/2 ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 are powerful, generic Wi-Fi + Bluetooth LE MCU modules that have a rich set of peripherals. They provide acceleration for neural network computing and signal processing workloads. 5 V to 3.3 V LDO Power regulator that converts a 5 V supply into a 3.3 V output. Pin Headers All available GPIO pins (except for the SPI bus for flash) are broken out to the pin headers on the board for easy interfacing and programming. USB-to-UART Port A Micro-USB port used for power supply to the board, for flashing applications to the chip, as well as for communication with the chip via the on-board USB-to-UART bridge. Boot Button Download button. Holding down Boot and then pressing Reset initiates Firmware Download mode for downloading firmware through the serial port. Reset Button Press this button to restart the system. ESP32-S3 USB Port ESP32-S3 full-speed USB OTG interface, compliant with the USB 1.1 specification. The interface is used for power supply to the board, for flashing applications to the chip, for communication with the chip using USB 1.1 protocols, as well as for JTAG debugging. USB-to-UART Bridge Single USB-to-UART bridge chip provides transfer rates up to 3 Mbps. RGB LED Addressable RGB LED, driven by GPIO48. 3.3 V Power On LED Turns on when the USB power is connected to the board.
