Awesome board for projects. Might get a couple more of them.

Zwingend erforderlich ist das Developer Board nicht wirklich, kann man alles auch mit dem klassischen Breadboard lösen. Aber es ist schon mega praktisch und vor allem schön, das man direkt sehen kann, ob Daten auf einem Pin ankommen.

This breakout board is a real joy to use. It provides an LED indicator on nearly every pin, and accepts an external power source. Those LEDs are handy when troubleshooting, and they saved me time identifying connection mistakes quickly.Keep in mind, the screws on those terminals are tiny, but the supplied screwdriver is adequate. Once paired with my ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1, the assembly still fits in the box supplied with the product, which is kind of a bonus.This product may not work with every ESP32 variant, so pay close attention to the pinouts of your development board and compare with those found on this breakout board.At first glance, I wasn't sure this would work with my ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1, but it works great. The breakout board has 40-pins, but the (DevKitC) ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 breakout has 44-pins. The 40-pin socket simply plugs in to the middle 40 pins of the DevKitC, with one pin unconnected at each end. This is not a problem, since those pins are redundant 3V3 and GND pins.Just for fun, enjoy this quick sample code to see all those LEDs in action:#include const int gpioPins[] = { 4, 5, 6, 7, 15, 16, 17, 18, 8, 3, 46, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 2, 42, 41, 40, 39, 38, 37, 36, 35, 0, 45, 48, 47, 21, 20, 19};const int numPins = sizeof(gpioPins) / sizeof(gpioPins[0]);void setup() { for (int i = 0; i pinMode(gpioPins[i], OUTPUT); }}void loop() { for (int i = 0; i digitalWrite(gpioPins[i], !digitalRead(gpioPins[i])); delay(100); }}update: I'm taking a few stars off. The 5V signal pin on the breakout isn't connected with the DevKit 5V pin.The product description clearly states the abundant (red) 5V0 pins on the breakout are only powered by the external power supply. But the ESP32-S3-DevKitC has a dedicated 5V pin from the 5V+ supplied by either USB port. FYI, the USB port powers the DevKit when no external supply is used. This pin is broken out in the lower-left corner to a blue LED. But, sadly, it is NOT connected to its adjacent (yellow) signal pin. Instead, the pin is tied to all the other (red) 5V pins powered by the external supply through the buck convertor. As far as I can tell, this is the ONLY (yellow) signal pin on the breakout not connected with the corresponding pin on the DevKit. The whole point of the breakout is to make connection with and troubleshooting of the smaller DevKit easier. I presume the designer of this breakout felt users may try to power external devices from the yellow 5V signal pin, and felt it necessary to block them from doing so.

This breakout board for the ESP 32 is great for initial testing and prototyping. The onboard LEDs on the eye opens easily show their status which makes it easy to troubleshoot external circuitry.

Top notch quality and shipping! The quality "weight" is immediately noticible. Packed in an anti static bag in a box with instructions. Piece of mind is worth the added cost, if any. 100 percent satisfied with the brand and they have earned a customer for life.Product works as intended. Very easy to read the pinout labeled on the pcb, nice and bright. It just "feels" solid.

I'm working on two projects for which this board and the ESP32-S3 are perfect.I'm helping a small local water plant monitor the state remotely. I'm using HomeAssistant/ESPHome to access both security and water sensors remotely. This will replace a more cobbled-together Particle/IOT service that needs to meet their needs. This, plus an enclosure, makes the result look like it belongs in an industrial environment. That doesn't seem like much, but waterplants do get inspected, and things must look professional.I'm also using the same base components for WLED/XLights projects. The same community used to host a fireworks display on the 4th, but liability issues (due to an errant firework) have shut that down. Instead, we are doing a Laser/Light show on a shoestring budget. I want to build a reliable 12V setup, and this reduces the number of parts required because it accepts 12V power.The bottom line is this is a flexible solution. The results with a bit of cable management look professional. This board plus Wago clips eliminates the need for soldering.

This product is excellent for a PERMANENT setup for an ESP32 or ESP32 S3 board. I say permanent because external power is needed for the Red Line of pins, the 5V column. Any of the Ground Pins Column can be used in USB mode however. The 3.3V next to the Power Input can be used in USB mode, however there are only 8 pins for this usage.Pros:Each pin slot has a Female Hole for Male Pins for screwing it down to connect. Each pin has Male Connectors for Signal, 5V and Ground. There is also a set of 8 (Eight) male pins for both 3.3V and Ground.Cons:The column of Red Pins (5V) is only usable with an outside power source, 7-12V.
