Adafruit ItsyBitsy ESP32 - PCB Antenna

The Adafruit ItsyBitsy ESP32 is a compact and powerful PCB that offers a multitude of pins. It boasts the FCC-certified ESP32 Pico module, equipped with a 240MHz dual-core Tensilica processor, integrated WiFi and Bluetooth classic + BLE, and a generous 8 MB of Flash memory and 2 MB of PSRAM.

Enhancements have been included such as a USB to serial converter chip, power regulator, USB Micro B, buttons, NeoPixel, and Stemma QT I2C connector, making this versatile chip perfect for any task. It also boasts an impressive deep sleep current consumption of 10uA, making it an ultra low power ESP32 board.

The Itsy utilizes the ESP32 (PICO ECO V3) microchip at its core, a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth combination chip built with TSMC's low-power 40 nm technology. This specific model also seamlessly incorporates peripheral components such as a crystal oscillator, flash memory, PSRAM, filter capacitors, and RF matching links into a single package, making it ideal for compact spaces like the ItsyBitsy.

Please note, like other ESP32 modules, the ItsyBitsy ESP32 does not have native USB support - instead, there's a USB to serial converter chip. This means it cannot act like a USB keyboard or mouse, but it does have BLE and BT classic, so you could use it wirelessly.

Here are some of the updates you can look forward to when using ItsyBitsy ESP32:

• Same size, form-factor as the remaining ItsyBitsy mainboards - with a similar but not identical pinout (there are no pins at the end of the board like most other Itsy's due to the radio antenna being there)
• USB Micro B - To maintain compatibility with the rest of the ItsyBitsy's
• ESP32 V2 03 Dual Core 240MHz Xtensa processor - the ESP32 you know and love, with the latest engineering fixes. Massive user base and thousands of existing projects and libraries to use.
• WiFi, Bluetooth LE, and BT Classic for any IoT project usage
• 8 MB Flash & 2 MB PSRAM
• USB to Serial converter built-in with high-speed UART for debugging and uploading, auto-reset circuit works perfectly with any ESP32 uploading tool.
• Can be used with Arduino IDE, CircuitPython or MicroPython
• Built-in RGB NeoPixel LED with power control to reduce quiescent power in deep sleep
• Built-in Red LED on pin D13
• 5V level-shifted output on D5, perfect for driving NeoPixels or other devices that want 5V logic signal
• Battery input pads on the underside with diode protection for external battery packs up to 6V input
• 20 General Purpose "IO" pins:
  • 20 Pads expose pins from the ESP32:
    3 are analog input only (A3, A4, A5)
    1 is digital output only (5) with 5V level shifted up
  • 13 x 12-bit analog inputs (A0, A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, D12, D13, D14, SDA, SCL, D32, D33)
  • Dual 8-bit analog output DACs on A0/A1
  • PWM outputs on any pin
  • I2C port with STEMMA QT plug-n-play connector - a second I2C port can be defined on any other pins.
  • Hardware UART in addition to the USB-serial UART
  • Hardware SPI on the high speed SPI peripheral pins - a second SPI port can be defined on any other pins.
  • Hardware I2S on any pins
  • 8 x Capacitive Touch with no additional components required
• 3.3V regulator with 600mA peak output
• Light sleep at 4mA, deep sleep at ~10uA
• Reset switch for starting your project code over, for entering bootloader mode or for user reading
• User switch on pin 35
• Really small

Each order comes with one assembled and tested ItsyBitsy ESP32 with headers that can be soldered in for use with a breadboard.
