SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the development of a NodeMCU module using the ESP32 microcontroller instead of the ESP8266. The user seeks assistance with PCB design while emphasizing the need for the layout to match the NodeMCU V3 module. A suggestion is made to purchase a pre-made NodeMCU ESP32 board from suppliers like Amazon or AliBaba, as developing a custom module requires advanced skills and knowledge that exceed basic PCB design inquiries.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of ESP32 microcontroller architecture
  • Familiarity with PCB design principles
  • Knowledge of NodeMCU firmware and its compatibility
  • Experience with electronic component sourcing and prototyping
NEXT STEPS
  • Research "NodeMCU ESP32" development boards available on Amazon or AliBaba
  • Learn about PCB design software such as KiCad or Eagle
  • Explore the differences between ESP32 and ESP8266 in terms of features and capabilities
  • Study the pinout and layout specifications of the NodeMCU V3 module
USEFUL FOR

Electronics hobbyists, PCB designers, and developers looking to create custom IoT solutions using the ESP32 microcontroller.

Hi,

In the current project I'm working on, I want to develop a NodeMCU module using ESP32 rather than ESP826. The most recent module in this series is AS ESP32. In order to use it, the layout must be the same as the NodeMCU V3 module's.

So, if possible, could someone help me out with the project's PCB design?

Thanks.

It is not clear what you are trying to do.

If you want to run NodeMCU on an ESP32 then search for "NodeMCU ESP32" on Amazon/AliBaba/your local development board supplier and buy one. If you need a specific pinout then make an adapter board.

If you really do want to "develop a NodeMCU module" I am afraid you are going to need more skills and knowledge than you can get from asking about PCB designs here, and we are not going to help you copy someone else's IP anyway.
 
My plan was to develop a NodeMCU module with ESP32. I guess I'll just try to get it from a supplier instead of making it. Thanks!
