Overview¶

ESP32 is a series of low-cost, low-power system on a chip microcontrollers with integrated Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n) and dual-mode Bluetooth(v4.2 BR/EDR and BLE). The ESP32 series employs a Tensilica Xtensa LX6 microprocessor in both dual-core and single-core variations and includes in-built antenna switches, RF balun, power amplifier, low-noise receive amplifier, filters, and power-management modules. ESP32 is created and developed by Espressif Systems, a Shanghai-based Chinese company, and is manufactured by TSMC using their 40 nm process. It is a successor to the ESP8266 microcontroller.
