Development Board Sports ESP32-S2 MCU

Espressif Systems has announced that Morpheans, a French startup, has built an ESP32-S2-based development board for education and innovation. MorphESP 240 provides an affordable, versatile, fully-integrated platform with Wi-Fi connectivity. According to Espressif, the world of possible applications for MorphESP 240 includes IoT gateways, sensor networks, test and measurement equipment, wireless input devices, radio communication platforms, media streaming appliances, imaging technologies and prototyping projects for just about anything.

MorphESP 240 is an easy-to-use dev board that is compatible with Arduino and CircuitPython. It is based on ESP32-S2 and comes with a built-in, high-resolution, IPS-color display in a 20g, 89mm × 28mm × 6 mm package.

Specifications:

  • An ESP32-S2-WROOM with:
    • A 240MHz single-core microcontroller
    • 128KB of ROM
    • 320KB of SRAM
    • 802.11 b/g/n/ 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi
  • An on-board, SPI-driven, 240 × 240 pixel ST7789 display
  • A classic, multi-color WS2812B RGB LED
  • A built-in, JST-connected battery with a USB charging module
  • A 5V to 3.3V regulator to feed additional modules
  • Plenty of GPIOs to play with

MorphESP 240 is totally open-source. By clicking on the following hyperlinks, you can find the relevant schematics, the KiCAD project source, and the DXF, STL, and Solidworks files you will need if you want to lasercut or 3D print yourself an enclosure. You can even fabricate your own dev shield, if you like!
