## Description

This compact ESP32-S3 development board combines a 2.8 inch round IPS LCD with touch control, WiFi and Bluetooth BLE 5, making it a handy platform for HMI, dashboard and embedded GUI projects.It uses an Xtensa 32-bit LX7 dual-core processor and includes onboard Flash and PSRAM, so it can smoothly run GUI frameworks such as LVGL. The 480 × 480 display uses an RGB interface, while the touch controller connects over I2C with interrupt support.A broad set of onboard hardware is provided for prototyping, including USB Type-C, UART, I2C, GPIO expansion, TF card slot, RTC, 6-axis IMU, buzzer, battery charging and headers for expansion. Waveshare provides resources for ESP-IDF and Arduino IDE development.Features:Processor: Equipped with high-performance Xtensa 32-bit LX7 dual-core processor, up to 240MHz main frequencyWireless: Supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi (802.81 b/g/n) and Bluetooth 5 (LE), with onboard antennaMemory: Built-in 512KB SRAM and 384KB ROM, with onboard 16MB Flash and 8MB PSRAMDisplay: Onboard 2.8inch LCD display, 480×480 resolutionTouch: Supports touch control via I2C interface, with interrupt support (for touch version only)Interfaces: Adapting UART, I2C and some IO interfaces, integrates full-speed USB portOnboard peripherals: Onboard QMI8658 6-axis sensor, RTC sensor, TF card slot and battery recharge management module, etc.Power control: Supports accurate control such as flexible clock and multiple power modes to realize low power consumption in different scenariosDisplay panel: IPS Display PanelViewing angle: Excellent display performance, 160° viewing angleDevelopment support: Supports ESP-IDF, Arduino IDEResources: Comprehensive SDK, dev resources, and tutorials to help you easily get startedPeripheral expansion: Supports the expansion of multiple peripherals via GPIO, UART and I2C interfaces, etc.ESP32-S3R8: Dual-core processor, up to 240MHz operating frequencyQST attitude sensor: QMI8658 (6-axis IMU includes a 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis accelerometer)TCA9554PWR: GPIO expander chipFSUSB42UMX: UART selection chip, the 4-pin UART header is disabled when connected to the UART Type-C portCH343P: USB to UART with onboard automatic download circuit, enabling program burning without additional operations16MB Flash: 16MB FlashRTC chip: PCF85063 RTC chipBattery recharge manager: Battery recharge managerME6217C33M5G: Low dropout regulator, 800mA output (Max.)USB Type-C port: USB Type-C portMX1.25 battery header: MX1.25 2PIN connector, for 3.7V Lithium battery, supports charging and discharging12PIN multi-functional pin header: 12PIN multi-functional pin headerIPEX1 connector: Switching to use external antenna via resoldering the resistorTF card slot: TF card slotRTC battery header: for connecting rechargeable RTC batteryI2C header: connecting with internal chip, only supports the I2C peripherals and cannot be mapped to other functionsUART header: only available when the USB to UART Type-C port is not connectedUSB TO UART Type-C port: for power supply, program burning and debuggingBuzzer: BuzzerCharge indicator: Lithium battery charge indicator, lights up when charging, off when fully charged (the light status is uncertain when the battery is not connected)Power indicator: Power indicatorBattery power supply control button: Battery power supply control buttonRESET button: RESET buttonBOOT button: BOOT buttonSpecifications:Display Panel: IPSDisplay Size: 2.8 inchResolution: 480 × 480Contrast Ratio: 1200:1Communication Interface: RGBDriver IC: ST7701Touch Interface (Touch Version Only): I2CTouch IC (Touch Version Only): GT911Ideal for ESP32-S3 GUI projects, touch control panels, portable interfaces and quick HMI development using Arduino IDE or ESP-IDF.
