ESP32 S3 DevKitC-1 N16R8 With IPEX Antenna Support

The ESP32 S3 DevKitC‑1 N16R8 with IPEX Antenna Support adds flexible antenna connectivity to the powerful ESP32-S3 platform. Designed for developers needing modular antenna solutions, this board is ideal for custom enclosures, external antennas or high-gain setups.

Key Features:

• ESP32‑S3 SoC Performance: Dual-core Xtensa LX7, 16 MB Flash, 8 MB PSRAM — suitable for AI, IoT and embedded applications.
• IPEX Antenna Connector: External antenna support offers improved signal strength and flexibility in antenna placement for optimized wireless performance.
• Rich I/O and Interfaces: 38 GPIOs with support for ADC, DAC, UART, SPI, I2C, PWM, and more for sensors and peripherals.
• Dual USB‑C Connectivity: One port for power and programming, another for native USB OTG or mass storage operations.
• Power Efficiency: Deep sleep mode for battery‑powered or low-power IoT deployments.

Use Cases:

• Custom IoT gateways and remote devices with external antennas
• Wireless sensor networks requiring strong signal through enclosures or long distances
• AI and data‑logging systems needing stable, configurable connectivity

If you prefer a fixed antenna solution, consider the 2.4 GHz antenna variant. For smaller form-factor boards, the N8R2 variant is also available.
