1 Overview
ESP32-WROOM-32D and ESP32-WROOM-32U are powerful, generic Wi-Fi + Bluetooth + Bluetooth LE MCU
modules that target a wide variety of applications, ranging from low-power sensor networks to the most
demanding tasks, such as voice encoding, music streaming and MP3 decoding.
At the core of the two modules is the ESP32-D0WD chip that belongs to the ESP32 series* of chips. The chip
embedded is designed to be scalable and adaptive. There are two CPU cores that can be individually controlled,
and the CPU clock frequency is adjustable from 80 MHz to 240 MHz. The chip also has a low-power
coprocessor that can be used instead of the CPU to save power while performing tasks that do not require much
computing power, such as monitoring of peripherals. ESP32 integrates a rich set of peripherals, ranging from
capacitive touch sensors, Hall sensors, SD card interface, Ethernet, high-speed SPI, UART, I2S and I2C.
Note:
* For details on the part numbers of the ESP32 family of chips, please refer to the document ESP32 Datasheet.
The integration of Bluetooth® , Bluetooth LE and Wi-Fi ensures that a wide range of applications can be targeted,
and that the module is all-around: using Wi-Fi allows a large physical range and direct connection to the Internet
through a Wi-Fi router, while using Bluetooth allows the user to conveniently connect to the phone or broadcast
low energy beacons for its detection. The sleep current of the ESP32 chip is less than 5 µA, making it suitable for
battery powered and wearable electronics applications. The module supports a data rate of up to 150 Mbps,
and 20 dBm output power at the antenna to ensure the widest physical range. As such the module does offer
industry-leading specifications and the best performance for electronic integration, range, power consumption,
and connectivity.
The operating system chosen for ESP32 is freeRTOS with LwIP; TLS 1.2 with hardware acceleration is built in as
well. Secure (encrypted) over the air (OTA) upgrade is also supported, so that users can upgrade their products
even after their release, at minimum cost and effort.
Notice:
1. ESP32-WROOM-32D and ESP32-WROOM-32U with 8 MB flash or 16 MB flash are available for custom order.
2. ESP32-WROOM-32D and ESP32-WROOM-32U with high temperature range (–40 °C ~ +105 °C) option are avail-
able for custom order. 4 MB SPI flash is supported on the high temperature range version.

Notice:
* Pins SCK/CLK, SDO/SD0, SDI/SD1, SHD/SD2, SWP/SD3 and SCS/CMD, namely, GPIO6 to GPIO11 are connected
to the integrated SPI flash integrated on the module and are not recommended for other uses.
• MTDI
• GPIO0
• GPIO2
• MTDO
• GPIO5
Software can read the values of these five bits from register ”GPIO_STRAPPING”.
During the chip’s system reset release (power-on-reset, RTC watchdog reset and brownout reset), the latches of
the strapping pins sample the voltage level as strapping bits of ”0” or ”1”, and hold these bits until the chip is
powered down or shut down. The strapping bits configure the device’s boot mode, the operating voltage of
VDD_SDIO and other initial system settings.
Each strapping pin is connected to its internal pull-up/pull-down during the chip reset. Consequently, if a
strapping pin is unconnected or the connected external circuit is high-impedance, the internal weak
pull-up/pull-down will determine the default input level of the strapping pins.
To change the strapping bit values, users can apply the external pull-down/pull-up resistances, or use the host
MCU’s GPIOs to control the voltage level of these pins when powering on ESP32.
Note:
• Firmware can configure register bits to change the settings of ”Voltage of Internal LDO (VDD_SDIO)” and ”Timing
of SDIO Slave” after booting.
• Both ESP32-WROOM-32D and ESP32-WROOM-32U integrate a 3.3 V SPI flash, so the pin MTDI cannot be set
to 1 when the modules are powered up.
3 Functional Description
This chapter describes the modules and functions integrated in ESP32-WROOM-32D and
ESP32-WROOM-32U.
• 8 KB of SRAM in RTC, which is called RTC FAST Memory and can be used for data storage; it is accessed
by the main CPU during RTC Boot from the Deep-sleep mode.
• 8 KB of SRAM in RTC, which is called RTC SLOW Memory and can be accessed by the co-processor
during the Deep-sleep mode.
• 1 Kbit of eFuse: 256 bits are used for the system (MAC address and chip configuration) and the remaining
768 bits are reserved for customer applications, including flash-encryption and chip-ID.
ESP32 can access the external QSPI flash and SRAM through high-speed caches.
• The external flash can be mapped into CPU instruction memory space and read-only memory space
simultaneously.
– When external flash is mapped into CPU instruction memory space, up to 11 MB + 248 KB can be
mapped at a time. Note that if more than 3 MB + 248 KB are mapped, cache performance will be
reduced due to speculative reads by the CPU.
– When external flash is mapped into read-only data memory space, up to 4 MB can be mapped at a
time. 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit reads are supported.
• External SRAM can be mapped into CPU data memory space. Up to 4 MB can be mapped at a time.
8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit reads and writes are supported.
Both ESP32-WROOM-32D and ESP32-WROOM-32U integrate a 4 MB of external SPI flash. The integrated SPI
flash is connected to GPIO6, GPIO7, GPIO8, GPIO9, GPIO10 and GPIO11. These six pins cannot be used as
regular GPIOs.
For details on ESP32’s power consumption in different power modes, please refer to section ”RTC and
Low-Power Management” in ESP32 Datasheet.
Note:
External connections can be made to any GPIO except for GPIOs in the range 6-11. These six GPIOs are connected to
the module’s integrated SPI flash. For details, please see Section 6 Schematics.
5 Electrical Characteristics
1. The module worked properly after a 24-hour test in ambient temperature at 25 °C, and the IOs in three domains
(VDD3P3_RTC, VDD3P3_CPU, VDD_SDIO) output high logic level to ground. Please note that pins occupied by flash
and/or PSRAM in the VDD_SDIO power domain were excluded from the test.
2. Please see Appendix IO_MUX of ESP32 Datasheet for IO’s power domain.
Notes:
1. Please see Appendix IO_MUX of ESP32 Datasheet for IO’s power domain. VDD is the I/O voltage for a particular power
domain of pins.
2. For VDD3P3_CPU and VDD3P3_RTC power domain, per-pin current sourced in the same domain is gradually reduced
from around 40 mA to around 29 mA, VOH >=2.64 V, as the number of current-source pins increases.
3. Pins occupied by flash and/or PSRAM in the VDD_SDIO power domain were excluded from the test.

Note:
• Soldering Pad 39 to the Ground is not necessary for a satisfactory thermal performance. If users do want to solder it, they need to ensure that the correct quantity of soldering
paste is applied.
• To ensure the power supply to the ESP32 chip during power-up, it is advised to add an RC delay circuit at the EN pin. The recommended setting for the RC delay circuit is
usually R = 10 kΩ and C = 1 µF. However, specific parameters should be adjusted based on the power-up timing of the module and the power-up and reset sequence timing
of the chip. For ESP32’s power-up and reset sequence timing diagram, please refer to Section Power Scheme in ESP32 Datasheet.
