pyWiFi-ESP32 Development Board Kit Pinout Diagram

Complete pin reference for pyWiFi-ESP32 Development Board Kit

The pyWiFi-ESP32 pinout follows standard ESP32 GPIO layout with 30+ pins for extensive functionality. Power pins include 3V3 for 3.3V supply and GND for ground. Communication pins like TXD0 and RXD0 handle UART, while GPIO pins (0-39) support digital I/O, ADC, DAC, PWM, I2C, SPI, and more.

ADC channels provide 12-bit analog input, DAC offers analog output, and touch sensors enable capacitive touch interfaces. The board's flexible pinout makes it perfect for sensor integration and IoT prototyping.

PIN	Label	Why Avoid	Type
IO0	GPIO0	Must be HIGH during boot for normal startup; if held LOW on reset, forces flash programming mode.	🛠️ Strapping
IO2	GPIO2	If driven HIGH on reset (while IO0 is LOW), selects an unsupported SDIO boot mode, causing boot failure.	🛠️ Strapping
IO4	GPIO4	Sampled at reset for boot config; should not be driven at boot (affects boot mode timing).	🛠️ Strapping
IO5	GPIO5	Must be HIGH during boot; if pulled LOW at reset, alters SDIO slave timing and may prevent normal boot.	🛠️ Strapping
IO12	MTDI (GPIO12)	Keep LOW during boot (internal PD); pulling HIGH at reset selects 1.8V flash mode, causing flash brownout if 3.3V flash is used.	🛠️ Strapping
IO13	MTCK (GPIO13)	Used for JTAG debugging (TCK); avoid using as GPIO if JTAG is needed.	🪛 Other
IO14	MTMS (GPIO14)	Used for JTAG debugging (TMS); driving it as GPIO may interfere with JTAG or produce spurious signals at boot.	🪛 Other
IO15	MTDO (GPIO15)	Keep HIGH during boot (internal PU); if LOW on reset, bootloader log is silenced and boot mode may change.	🛠️ Strapping
IO16	GPIO16	Connected to internal PSRAM on PSRAM-enabled modules; not usable as GPIO on those modules.	⚡ Flash
IO17	GPIO17	Connected to internal PSRAM on PSRAM-enabled modules; not usable as GPIO on those modules.	⚡ Flash
IO34	GPIO34	Cannot be used as output (no drive capability); only suitable for analog/digital input.	🪛 Other
IO35	GPIO35	Cannot be used as output; only suitable for input.	🪛 Other
