Installation of the Module
- If you haven’t installed the Arduino IDE, download and install
it first. - If you face driver issues later, download the updated CP210x
USB-UART drivers for your OS. - After installing the IDE, add a new board administrator by:
- Going to File > Preferences
- Adding the link:
https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json to additional
board manager URLs. - Going to Tools > Board > Board manager…
- Searching for esp32 and installing esp32 by Espressif
Systems.
Using the Module
Your NodeMCU ESP32 is now ready for use. Follow these steps:
- Connect it to your computer using a USB cable.
- Open Arduino IDE and select ESP32 Dev Module under Tools >
Board. - To quickly test, retrieve the device number using provided
examples under File > Examples > ESP32. - You can use the following code snippet to get the chip ID:
uint32_t chipId = 0;
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
}
void loop() {
for (int i = 0; i < 17; i = i + 8) {
chipId |= ((ESP.getEfuseMac() >> (40 - i)) & 0xff);
}
}

1. GENERAL INFORMATION Dear customer, thank you for purchasing our product. In the following we will show you what you need to bear in mind when commissioning and using. Should you encounter any unexpected problems during use, please do not hesitate to contact us. 3. DEVICE OVERVIEW The NodeMCU ESP32 module is a compact prototyping board and can be easily programmed via the Arduino IDE. It has 2.4 GHz dual-mode WiFi and a BT radio connection. Also integrated on the microcontroller development board are: 512 kB SRAM and 4 MB memory, 2x DAC, 15x ADC, 1x SPI, 1x I²C, 2x UART. PWM is activated on every digital pin. An overview of the available pins can be found in the following illustration:
i The input voltage via USB-C is 5 V ±5%.
The input voltage via Vin-Pin is 6 – 12 V. The logic level of the module is 3.3 V. Do not apply a higher voltage to the input pins.
4. INSTALLATION OF THE MODULE
If you have not yet installed the Arduino IDE on your computer, download and install it first. If you have problems with the module driver later on, you can download the updated CP210x USB-UART drivers for your operating system here. After installing the development environment, you must add a new board administrator by following the steps below. Go to File Preferences
Add the following link to additional board manager URLs: https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json You can separate multiple URLs with a comma.
Now got to Tools Board Board manager…
Enter esp32 in the search field and install esp32 by Espressif Systems.
The installation is now complete. You can now select the ESP32 Dev Module under Tools Board.
i Attention! After the initial installation, the baud rate may have changed to
921600. This may lead to problems. In this case, select baud rate 115200 to avoid potential problems.
4. USING THE MODULE Your NodeMCU ESP32 is now ready for use. Simply connect it to your computer with a USB cable. The installed board manager already provides many examples to give you a quick insight into the module. The examples can be found in your Arduino IDE under File Examples ESP32. The quickest and easiest way to test your NodeMCU ESP32 is to retrieve the device number. Either copy the following code or use the GetChipID example from the Arduino IDE:
uint32_t chipId = 0; void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200); } void loop() {
for (int i = 0; i < 17; i = i + 8) { chipId |= ((ESP.getEfuseMac() >> (40 – i)) & 0xff) << i;
} Serial.printf(“ESP32 Chip model = %s Rev %dn”, ESP.getChipModel(), ESP.getChipRevision()); Serial.printf(“This chip has %d coresn”, ESP.getChipCores()); Serial.print(“Chip ID: “); Serial.println(chipId); delay(3000); }
i Before uploading the code, make sure that you have selected the correct port and the correct board under Tools.
