// Supporting information: https://github.com/S5NC/EBYTE_ESP32-S3/ // Originally developed for E22-900M30S with ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N4 // NOTE: Uses ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N4.json in boards folder (via platformio.ini board field), assumes 4 MB (quad SPI) flash, // no PSRAM // FIXME: implement SX12 module type autodetection and have setup for each case (add E32 support) // E32 has same pinout except having extra pins. I assume that the GND on it is connected internally to other GNDs so it // is not a problem to NC the extra GND pins. // For each EBYTE module pin in this section, provide the pin number of the ESP32-S3 you connected it to // The ESP32-S3 is great because YOU CAN USE PRACTICALLY ANY PINS for the connections, but avoid some pins (such as on // the WROOM modules the following): strapping pins (except 0 as a user button input as it already has a pulldown // resistor in typical application schematic) (0, 3, 45, 46), USB-reserved (19, 20), and pins which aren't present on // the WROOM-2 module for compatiblity as it uses octal SPI, or are likely connected internally in either WROOM version // (26-37), and avoid pins whose voltages are set by the SPI voltage (47, 48), and pins that don't exist (22-25) You can // ALSO set the SPI pins (SX126X_CS, SX126X_SCK, SX126X_MISO, SX126X_MOSI) to any pin with the ESP32-S3 due to \ GPIO // Matrix / IO MUX / RTC IO MUX \, and also the serial pins, but this isn't recommended for Serial0 as the WROOM modules // have a 499 Ohm resistor on U0TXD (to reduce harmonics but also acting as a sort of protection) // We have many free pins on the ESP32-S3-WROOM-X-Y module, perhaps it is best to use one of its pins to control TXEN, // and use DIO2 as an extra interrupt, but right now Meshtastic does not benefit from having another interrupt pin // available. // Adding two 0-ohm links on your PCB design so that you can choose between the two modes for controlling the E22's TXEN // would enable future software to make the most of an extra available interrupt pin // Possible improvement: can add extremely low resistance MOSFET to physically toggle power to E22 module when in full // sleep (not waiting for interrupt)? // PA stands for Power Amplifier, used when transmitting to increase output power // LNA stands for Low Noise Amplifier, used when \ listening for / receiving \ data to increase sensitivity ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // // // Have custom connections or functionality?

Each radio module takes different actions // based on these values, but generally the path from the antenna to SX1262 is changed from signal output to signal // input. Also, if there are LNAs (Low-Noise Amplifiers) or PAs (Power Amplifiers) in the output or input paths, their // power is also controlled by these pins.
