ESP32-S2-DevKitM-1
This user guide provides information on Espressif’s small-sized development board ESP32-S2-DevKitM-1.
ESP32-S2-DevKitM-1 is entry-level development board. Most of the I/O pins on the module are broken out to the pin headers on both sides for easy interfacing. Developers can either connect peripherals with jumper wires or mount ESP32-S2-DevKitM-1 on a breadboard.

|
On-board module (ESP32-S2-MINI-1 or ESP32-S2-MINI-1U in figures above) |
ESP32-S2-MINI series modules with an on-board PCB antenna or a connector for an external antenna. This series of modules, known for its small size, have a flash and/or a PSRAM integrated in the chip package. For more information, please refer to Ordering Information. |
|
Pin Headers |
All available GPIO pins (except for the SPI bus for flash) are broken out to the pin headers on the board. Users can program ESP32-S2FH4 chip to enable multiple functions such as SPI, I2S, UART, I2C, touch sensors, PWM etc. For details, please see Header Block. |
|
3.3 V Power On LED |
Turns on when the USB power is connected to the board. |
|
USB to UART Bridge |
Single USB-UART bridge chip provides transfer rates up to 3 Mbps. |
|
Reset Button |

Power Supply Options
There are three mutually exclusive ways to provide power to the board:
-
Micro-USB Port, default power supply
-
5V and GND pin headers
-
3V3 and GND pin headers
It is recommended to use the first option: Micro-USB Port.
Header Block
The two tables below provide the Name and Function of the pin headers on both sides of the board (J1 and J3). The pin header names are shown in ESP32-S2-DevKitM-1 - front. The numbering is the same as in the ESP32-S2-DevKitM-1 Schematics (PDF).
