1. Product overview
Nodemcu-32s module is developed by Anxinke Technology. At the heart of this module is the ESP32 chip,

which is available extended, adaptive features. two CPU cores can be controlled separately. A clock

frequency adjustment range of 80 MHz to 240MHz, support RTOS, is a universal Wi-Fi +BT +BLE MCU

module.

Nodemcu-32s module integrates traditional Bluetooth, low power Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Has a wide range of

applications: Wi-Fi support for a wide range of communication connections and direct connection to the

Internet through routers; Bluetooth allows users to connect Cell phone or broadcast BLE Beacon to facilitate

signal detection. Data transfer rates up to 150 Mbps, supported by the module.Antenna output power up to

20 dBm, can achieve maximum range of wireless communication. So this module has a leading industry in

high integration, wireless transmission distance, power consumption and network connectivity performance

is excellent.

6. Design Guidance

6.1 Power Supply

（1）Recommended voltage 3.3V, Peak:Current over 500mA .
（2）It is recommended to use the LDO power supply；If DC-DC is used, the ripple is
controlled within 30 mV.
（3）DC-DC power supply circuit is recommended to reserve the position of the dynamic
response capacitor, and the output ripple can be optimized when the load change is large.

（4）Proposed addition of ESD Devices to 5V Power supply Interface.
