Functional Modules -------------------------------- This chapter mainly introduces each functional module (interface) and the hardware schematics for them. 3.1 Power Supply Management Module ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 3.1.1 Power Supply Management Module ########################################## :orphan: The development board can be powered by battery and the AP5056 power supply management chip can be used to charge the battery. The AP5056 is a complete constant current constant voltage linear charger for single cell lithium-ion batteries. It has 4.2V of preset charge voltage and 1A of programmable charge current. When both the USB power supply and the battery power supply are available, the system selection of power supply will be: VBUS is high, Q4 is in cut-off state, VBAT (battery power) is automatically cut off from the system power supply, and the USB supplies power for the system. The figure below shows the schematics for USB/BAT power supply management. .. figure:: ../../_static/hw-reference/lowpower_evb/BATTERY-POWER.png :align: center 3.1.2 Power Supply Management for Peripherals ################################################# First of all, the input from the USB or BAT is converted by the power management chip into a 3.3V voltage to power the circuit. The power management chip on the board is ETA3425, which has an output voltage of 3.3V and a maximum output current of 600 mA. The figure below shows the schematics for peripheral power supply. .. figure:: ../../_static/hw-reference/lowpower_evb/peripheral.png :align: center The main VDD33 circuit has two branches: One is ESP32\_VDD33, which is used to power the ESP32 module module. The other VDD33\_PeriP, which is used to power all peripherals. The connection between them can be controlled via the pin header and jumper cap. The figure below shows the schematics for ESP32\_VDD33. .. figure:: ../../_static/hw-reference/lowpower_evb/VDD33.png :align: center The VDD33\_PeriP branch circuit also has two sub-branches: One is VDD33\_PeriP\_Screen, dedicated power supply for the external screen; and another is VDD33\_PeriP\_Sensor, power supply for the three sensors. The connection of the two can be controlled by the module GPIO+MOS. The figure below shows the schematics for VDD33\_PeriP. .. figure:: ../../_static/hw-reference/lowpower_evb/PeriP.png :align: center 3.2 Boot & UART ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The development board is integrated with a PROG Header, which can be connected to a ESP-PROG development board via a cable. Users can then connect the Micro USB of the ESP-PROG development board to a PC for ESP32-MeshKit-Sense firmware download and debugging. The figure below shows the schematics for Boot & UART Circuit. .. figure:: ../../_static/hw-reference/lowpower_evb/UART.png :align: center 3.3 Module for Wakeup from Sleep ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The board has a button connected to the pin IO34, which is a pin in the RTC domain. When the chip is in sleep, pressing the button will wake up ESP32. The figure below shows the schematics for wakeup-from-sleep module. .. figure:: ../../_static/hw-reference/lowpower_evb/wakeup.png :align: center 3.4 External Screens ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The development board is integrated with a screen connector that can connect different external screens to the board via cables.
