ESP32 Circuit Explanation


Explain the circut
This is a simple ESP32-S3 board: a 9V battery holder feeds an AMS1117-3.3 regulator, which is intended to create a 3.3V rail for the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 module. The ESP32 drives a red LED through R1 = 220Ω from IO15, so firmware can turn the LED on/off.
Important concern: the regulator output U3:VO is currently on its own net and does not connect to the ESP32 3V3 net, so as drawn the ESP32 is not actually powered by the regulator output.
Fix power net
Run ERC/DRC
Show power connections
Check regulator caps
