ESP32-DevKit-Lipo, ESP32-POE and ESP32-POE-ISO boards now have option with external antenna and all our ESP32 boards can be build in extended temperature range -40+105C for demanding applications

Our popular ESP32-DevKit-Lipo, ESP32-POE and ESP32-POE-ISO now has option with external antenna, so you can use them even with metal boxes. The external antenna extends their range by 20-30%.

We stock now ESP32 modules with 16MB of Flash, so if you run out of memory you can order any of our ESP32 boards with 16MB Flash module too.

Also we have ESP32 modules in extended temperature range -HT (high temperature) which works from -40C up to 105C for demanding applications.

New products we got in stock

We got many new products in stock:

ANTENNA-WIFI-BT-U.FL is 2.4GHz WiFi/BLE +3dBi antenna compatible with ESP32-WROOM-32U modules.

CONNECTOR-OBD2 connector with plastic box:

We got these as we have cool idea for WiFi OBD2 sequencer which will allow you to send pre-programmed OBD2 sequences to your card OBD bus allowing to do amazing effects with your car lights close doors with your phone and etc.

IR-BARRIER-100M is infrared fence for perimeter protection. It comes with dual beams and adjustable sensitivity.

 

SNS-TMP-DS18B20 is digital temperature sensor which works with Arduino libraries and allow easy to make Solar Water Heater controller with ESP32-EVB and MOD-LCD2.8RTP . Two sensor can be addressed via single wire.

GLASS-TAPE20MM is glass re-enforced tape which is very strong and heat resistant.

Water proof push buttons with three sizes 12mm, 16mm, 19mm and four colors LED rings: Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, White:

Seven new version of ESP32 modules are add to our web shop

We add to our web shop seven new ESP32 modules:

ESP32-WROOM-32D-4MB – this is equal to used by us ESP32-WROOM-32, it uses D0WD instead of D0WDQ6 which is with smaller size and Espressif recommend it for new designs.

ESP32-WROOM-32D-16MB  has 16MB of Flash

ESP32-WROOM-32D-4MBHT is High temperature +105C module for demanding applications.

ESP32-WROOM-32U-4MB is with U.FL connector for external antenna

ESP32-WROOM-32U-16MB has 16MB of Flash

ESP32-WROOM-32U-4MBHT is High temperature +105C module for demanding applications.

ESP32-WROVER-4MB has 4MB Flash and 8MB of PSRAM.

The high temperature modules are still not in stock as Espressif manufacture these now, but all others are in stock.

The slides from Industry 4.0 meeting in Stuttgart are online

Open Source / Free Software for Effective Industry 4.0 Meetup  organized by Nexedi GmbH  and hosted by Fraunhofer IAO was held on 12th of November in Stuttgart.

There were quite interesting talks mostly focused on Open Source Technologies and their possible use in Industry 4.0.

My slides are now uploaded at Slideshare.

MicroPython running on ESP8266-EVB driving MOD-IO and MOD-IO2 relays

New tutorial how to use ESP8266-EVB with Micropython and to switch on/off relays and read ADC values on MOD-IO2 from MCHobby.be

ESP32-GATEWAY-EA revision with external antenna is in stock

Our popular ESP32-GATEWAY board now have revision with external antenna ESP32-GATEWAY-EA. Metal enclosure is on the way too.

ESP32-POE Open Source Hardware IoT development board with WiFi/BLE/100Mb Ethernet with 802.3 POE is in stock!

ESP32-POE board is now in stock. The prices start from EUR 14.36 for 50 pcs order.

This board offers Open Source Hardware / FOSS solution and building block for distributed sensor network with power over existing LAN infrastructure.

Possible use cases are Home automation, Industrial machine logging, remote environmental monitoring, access control, remote displays etc.

The board contains ESP32-WROOM-32 module with WiFi/BLE and Ethernet connectivity , RESET and USER buttons, micro SD card, LiPo battery charger and LiPo connector which allow board to work even with power supply drops.

The UEXT connector on the board can be used to connect many different sensors like:

• MOD-IRDA to send and receive IR commands
• MOD-RS485-ISO to connect to machines with RS485 interface
• MOD-MAG to measure magnetic field
• MOD-BME280 to precisely measure pressure, temperature, humidity
• MOD-LTR-501ALS  to measure light and color
• MOD-LCD2.8RTP LCD with touch panel for remote User Display and Interface
• MOD-IO four relay module for switching on and off devices
• MOD-RFID1356MIFARE RFID card reader

Si3402-B chipset takes care for the power over ethernet, it’s IEEE 802.3 compliant, including pre-standard (legacy).

Important notice, to keep board compact and as it’s main purpose is to connect to cloud different remote sensors there is no galvanic isolation between board and the power delivered by the LAN switch or router.

ESP32-POE has internal programming interface and you can program it with Espressif SDK or Arduino via USB cable. As the board is not galvanic isolated from the Ethernet power supply, before you connect the USB cable to your computer you should remove the Ethernet cable or you should use USB-ISO between your computer the ESP32-POE!
