FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

This chapter describes the ESP32-S3 various modules and functions.
3.1. CPU AND MEMORY
Xtensa® dual-core 32-bit LX7 microprocessor,up to 240 MHz

• 384 KB ROM
• 512 KB SRAM
• 16 KB SRAM in RTC
• SPI, Dual SPI, Quad SPI, Octal SPI, QPI and OPI interfaces that allow connection to multiple flash and external RAM
• Flash controller with cache is supported
• Flash in-Circuit Programming (ICP) is supported

3.2. STORAGE DESCRIPTION
3.2.1. External Flash and RAM
ESP32-S3 supports SPI, Dual SPI, Quad SPI, Octal SPI, QPI and OPI interfaces that allow connection to multiple external flash and RAM.
The external flash and RAM can be mapped into the CPU instruction memory space and read-only data memory space. The external RAM can also be mapped into the CPU data memory space. ESP32-S3 supports up to 1GB of external flash and RAM, and hardware encryption/decryption based on XTS-AES to protect users’programs and data in flash and external RAM.
Through high-speed caches, ESP32-S3 can support at a time up to:

• External flash or RAM mapped into 32 MB instruction space as individual blocks of 64 KB
• External RAM mapped into 32 MB data space as individual blocks of 64 KB. 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit, and 128-bit reads and writes are supported. External flash can also be mapped into 32 MB data space as individual blocks of 64 KB, but only supporting 8-bit, 16-bit, 32- bit and 128-bit reads.

3.3. CPU CLOCK
The CPU clock has three possible sources:

• External main crystal clock
• Internal fast RC oscillator (typically about 17.5 MHz, and adjustable)
• PLL clock

The application can select the clock source from the three clocks above.
The selected clock source drives the CPU clock directly, or after division, depending on the application. Once the CPU is reset, the default clock source would be the external main crystal clock divided by 2.
3.4. RTC AND LOWPOWER MANAGEMENT
With the use of advanced power-management technologies, ESP32-S3 can switch between different power modes. (see table1)。

• Active mode: CPU and chip radio are powered on. The chip can receive, transmit, or listen.
• Modemsleep mode: The CPU is operational and the clock speed can be reduced. The wireless baseband and radio are disabled, but wireless connection can remain active.
• Lightsleep mode: The CPU is paused. The RTC peripherals, as well as the ULP coprocessor can be woken up periodically by the timer. Any wake-up events (MAC, host, RTC timer, or external interrupts) will wake up the chip. Wireless connection can remain active. Users can optionally decide what peripherals to shut down/keep on (refer to Figure 1), for power-saving purpose.
• Deepsleep mode: CPU and most peripherals are powered down.
  Only the RTC memory is powered on and RTC peripherals are optional. Wi-Fi connection data are stored in the RTC memory. The ULP coprocessor is functional.

4.2. WIFI RADIO AND BASEBAND
The ESP32-S3 Wi-Fi radio and baseband support the following features:

• 802.11b/g/n
• 802.11n MCS0-7 that supports 20 MHz and 40 MHz bandwidth
• 802.11n MCS32
• 802.11n 0.4 μs guard-interval
• Data rate up to 150 Mbps
• RX STBC (single spatial stream)
• Adjustable transmitting power
• Antenna diversity:

ESP32-S3 supports antenna diversity with an external RF switch. This switch is controlled by one or more
GPIOs, and used to select the best antenna to minimize the effects of channel imperfections.
