1. ESP32-WROOM-32UE (IPEX) with 8 MB flash or 16 MB flash is available for custom order. 2. For detailed ordering information, please see Espressif Product Ordering Information. At the core of the module is the ESP32-D0WD-V3 chip*. The chip embedded is designed to be scalable and adaptive. There are two CPU cores that can be individually controlled, and the CPU clock frequency is adjustable from 80 MHz to 240 MHz. The user may also power off the CPU and make use of the low-power co-processor to constantly monitor the peripherals for changes or crossing of thresholds. ESP32 integrates a rich set of peripherals, ranging from capacitive touch sensors, Hall sensors, SD card interface, Ethernet, high-speed SPI, UART, IS and IC. Note:
* For details on the part numbers of the ESP32 family of chips, please refer to the document ESP32 User Manual. The integration of Bluetooth, Bluetooth LE and Wi-Fi ensures that a wide range of applications can be targeted, and that the module is all-around: using Wi-Fi allows a large physical range and direct connection to the Internet through a Wi-Fi router, while using Bluetooth allows the user to conveniently connect to the phone or broadcast low energy beacons for its detection. The sleep current of the ESP32 chip is less than 5 A, making it suitable for battery powered and wearable electronics applications. The module supports a data rate of up to 150 Mbps. As such the module does offer industry-leading specifications and the best performance for electronic integration, range, power consumption, and connectivity. The operating system chosen for ESP32 is freeRTOS with LwIP; TLS 1.2 with hardware acceleration is built in as well. Secure (encrypted) over the air (OTA) upgrade is also supported, so that users can upgrade their products even after their release, at minimum cost and effort.

2. Pin Definitions Name IO19 NC IO21 RXD0 TXD0 IO22 IO23 GND Notice:
MTDI GPIO0 GPIO2 MTDO GPIO5 Software can read the values of these five bits from register GPIO_STRAPPING. During the chips system reset release (power-on-reset, RTC watchdog reset and brownout reset), the latches of the strapping pins sample the voltage level as strapping bits of 0 or 1, and hold these bits until the chip is powered down or shut down. The strapping bits configure the devices boot mode, the operating voltage of VDD_SDIO and other initial system settings. Each strapping pin is connected to its internal pull-up/pull-down during the chip reset. Consequently, if a strapping pin is unconnected or the connected external circuit is high-impedance, the internal weak pull-up/pull-
down will determine the default input level of the strapping pins. To change the strapping bit values, users can apply the external pull-down/pull-up resistances, or use the host MCUs GPIOs to control the voltage level of these pins when powering on ESP32. After reset release, the strapping pins work as normal-function pins. Refer to Table 4 for a detailed boot-mode configuration by strapping pins.

Functional Description This chapter describes the modules and functions integrated in ESP32-WROOM-32UE. 3.1 CPU and Internal Memory ESP32-D0WD-V3 contains two low-power Xtensa 32-bit LX6 microprocessors. The internal memory includes:
448 KB of ROM for booting and core functions. 520 KB of on-chip SRAM for data and instructions. 8 KB of SRAM in RTC, which is called RTC FAST Memory and can be used for data storage; it is accessed by the main CPU during RTC Boot from the Deep-sleep mode. 8 KB of SRAM in RTC, which is called RTC SLOW Memory and can be accessed by the co-processor during the Deep-sleep mode. 1 Kbit of eFuse: 256 bits are used for the system (MAC address and chip configuration) and the remaining 768 bits are reserved for customer applications, including flash-encryption and chip-ID. 3.2 External Flash and SRAM ESP32 supports multiple external QSPI flash and SRAM chips. More details can be found in Chapter SPI in the ESP32 Technical Reference Manual. ESP32 also supports hardware encryption/decryption based on AES to pro-tect developers programs and data in flash. ESP32 can access the external QSPI flash and SRAM through high-speed caches. The external flash can be mapped into CPU instruction memory space and read-only memory space simul-taneously. When external flash is mapped into CPU instruction memory space, up to 11 MB + 248 KB can be mapped at a time. Note that if more than 3 MB + 248 KB are mapped, cache performance will be reduced due to speculative reads by the CPU. When external flash is mapped into read-only data memory space, up to 4 MB can be mapped at a time. 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit reads are supported. External SRAM can be mapped into CPU data memory space. Up to 4 MB can be mapped at a time. 8-
bit, 16-bit and 32-bit reads and writes are supported. ESP32-WROOM-32UE integrates a 4 MB SPI flash more memory space. 3.3 Crystal Oscillators The module uses a 40-MHz crystal oscillator. 7 3. Functional Description 3.4 RTC and Low-Power Management With the use of advanced power-management technologies, ESP32 can switch between different power modes. For details on ESP32s power consumption in different power modes, please refer to section RTC and Low-
Power Management in ESP32 User Manual. 8 4. Peripherals and Sensors 4. Peripherals and Sensors Please refer to Section Peripherals and Sensors in ESP32 User Manual. Note:

OEM Guidance 1. Applicable FCC rules This module is granted by Single Modular Approval. It complies to the requirements of FCC part 15C, section 15.247 rules. 2. The specific operational use conditions This module can be used in RF devices. The input voltage to the module is nominally 3.0V-3.6 V DC. The operational ambient temperature of the module is -
40 to 85 degree C. 3. Limited module procedures 4. Trace antenna design N/A N/A 5. RF exposure considerations The equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator and your body. If the equipment built into a host as a portable usage, the additional RF exposure evaluation may be required as specified by 2.1093. 6. Antenna Antenna type: PIFA antenna with IPEX connector; Peak gain: 4dBi 7. Label and compliance information An exterior label on OEMs end product can use wording such as the following:
Contains FCC ID: 2AC7Z-ESPWROOM32UE and Contains IC: 21098-ESPWROOMUE 8. Information on test modes and additional testing requirements a)The modular transmitter has been fully tested by the module grantee on the required number of channels,modulation types, and modes, it should not be necessary for the host installer to re-test all the available transmitter modes or settings. It is recommended that the host product manufacturer, installing the modular transmitter,perform some investigative measurements to confirm that the resulting composite system does not exceed the spurious emissions limits or band edge limits (e.g., where a different antenna may be causing additional emissions). b)The testing should check for emissions that may occur due to the intermixing of emissions with the other transmitters, digital circuitry, or due to physical properties of the host product
(enclosure). This investigation is especially important when integrating multiple modular transmitters where the certification is based on testing each of them in a stand-alone configuration. It is important to note that host product manufacturers should not assume that because the modular transmitter is certified that they do not have any responsibility for final product compliance. c)If the investigation indicates a compliance concern the host product manufacturer is obligated to mitigate the issue. Host products using a modular transmitter are subject to all the applicable individual technical rules as well as to the general conditions of operation in Sections 15.5, 15.15, and 15.29 to not cause interference. The operator of the host product will be obligated to stop operating the device until the interference have been corrected . 9. Additional testing, Part 15 Sub part B disclaimer The final host / module combination need to be evaluated against the FCC Part 15B criteria for unintentional radiators in order to be properly authorized for operation as a Part 15 digital device. The host integrator installing this module into their product must ensure that the final composite product complies with the FCC requirements by a technical assessment or evaluation to the FCC rules, including the transmitter operation and should refer to guidance in KDB 996369. For host products with certified modular transmitter, the frequency range of investigation of the composite system is specified by rule in Sections 15.33(a)(1) through
(a)(3), or the range applicable to the digital device, as shown in Section 15.33(b)(1), whichever is the higher frequency range of investigation When testing the host product, all the transmitters must be operating.The transmitters can be enabled by using publicly-
available drivers and turned on, so the transmitters are active. In certain conditions it might be appropriate to use a technology-specific call box (test set) where accessory 50 devices or drivers are not available. When testing for emissions from the unintentional radiator, the transmitter shall be placed in the receive mode or idle mode, if possible. If receive mode only is not possible then, the radio shall be passive (preferred) and/or active scanning. In these cases, this would need to enable activity on the communication BUS (i.e., PCIe, SDIO, USB) to ensure the unintentional radiator circuitry is enabled. Testing laboratories may need to add attenuation or filters depending on the signal strength of any active beacons (if applicable) from the enabled radio(s). See ANSI C63.4, ANSI C63.10 and ANSI C63.26 for further general testing details. The product under test is set into a lin association with a partnering device, as per the normal intended use of the product. To ease testing, the product under test is set to transmit at a high duty cycle, such as by sending a file or streaming some media content. k/
