About this item

The ESP32 development board by Espressif Systems is a powerful and versatile microcontroller designed for a wide range of IoT applications. It offers significantly higher processing power compared to its predecessor, the ESP8266, thanks to its dual-core processor running at up to 160 MHz. While it is larger in physical size and somewhat more expensive, the ESP32 brings several advanced features that make it ideal for complex projects. One of its standout features is the built-in Bluetooth module alongside Wi-Fi connectivity, enabling seamless wireless communication across different protocols. The board also supports the CAN protocol, making it suitable for automotive and industrial applications. With 36 GPIO pins, it provides ample interface options for sensors, actuators, and other peripherals. It includes a 12-bit ADC for precise analog-to-digital conversion and supports multiple communication interfaces such as UART, I2C, and I2S. The ESP32 is compatible with popular programming environments like the Arduino IDE and ESP-IDF, providing flexibility for developers of all levels. It is widely used in prototyping IoT devices, battery-powered applications, short-range wireless networks, and projects that demand extensive input/output capabilities combined with reliable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. Its rich feature set and performance make it a preferred choice for both hobbyists and professional developers.
