ESP32-WROOM Description

The ESP32-WROOM-32 is a versatile and powerful Wi-Fi + Bluetooth® + Bluetooth LE module, designed to support a wide range of applications. It is equally suitable for low-power sensor networks as well as high-demand tasks like voice encoding, music streaming, and MP3 decoding.

At the heart of the module is the ESP32-D0WDQ6 chip, engineered for scalability and adaptability. This chip features two CPU cores that can be independently controlled, with an adjustable clock frequency ranging from 80 MHz to 240 MHz. Additionally, it includes a low-power coprocessor, which is ideal for handling tasks that require minimal computing power—such as peripheral monitoring—while conserving energy.

The ESP32 integrates a rich set of peripherals, including capacitive touch sensors, an SD card interface, Ethernet, high-speed SPI, UART, I2S, and I2C. Its combination of power, flexibility, and connectivity makes the ESP32-WROOM-32 a perfect choice for a broad spectrum of IoT and embedded applications.

ESP32-WROOM Pinout

The ESP32-WROOM pinout is designed to offer developers a highly versatile and feature-packed layout for a variety of IoT and embedded applications. The ESP32 WROOM includes essential power pins such as 5V, 3.3V, and GND, ensuring stable power delivery for external components. Key communication protocols are well-supported, with pins for UART (RXD0, TXD0), SPI (MISO, MOSI, SCK, and SS), and I2C (SDA and SCL) to interface with a wide range of peripherals.

The ESP32 WROOM Devkit also supports multiple ADC pins (IO34, IO35, IO36, etc.), making it ideal for projects that require analog input, such as reading sensor data. Additionally, specialized pins such as DAC (IO25, IO26) and Touch Pins enhance its usability in advanced applications. The inclusion of RTC GPIOs further adds low-power features, allowing developers to take full advantage of the ESP32-WROOM pinout for efficient power management.
