IoT Development Board Based On ESP-32S Module Supports WiFi And Bluetooth
Posted by on
The NodeMCU ESP-32S is an IoT (Internet of Things) development board created by NodeMcu to evaluate the ESP-WROOM-32 module. It is based on the ESP32 microcontroller that supports WiFi, Bluetooth, Ethernet, and Low Power support all in a single chip.
The NodeMCU-32S board is also an open source IoT platform. It uses Lua script and a lot of open source projects, such as lua-cjson, and spiffs. It contains firmware that can run on ESP32 WiFi SoC chips, and its hardware is based on ESP-32S modules. The ESP32 is a WiFi + Bluetooth chip developed by Shanghai Espressif, which aims to provide access network for embedded products.
The development board maintains the classic NodeMCU 1.0 design, with the I / O pins placed on either side of the board, which provides a more straightforward setup and breadboard use. Using a breadboard for development can simplify the use of this module by making use of both sides of the standard pin.
Open source, interactive, programmable, intelligent & straightforward, plus containing WIFI + Bluetooth hardware makes the NodeMCU ESP-32S a great little board to keep in your toolkit.
