Summary of the Circuit
This circuit is designed around the ESP32 microcontroller, which serves as the central processing unit. The ESP32 is interfaced with an Adafruit TCA9548A I2C multiplexer, allowing for multiple I2C devices to be connected to the ESP32 via individual channels. Additionally, the circuit includes several 5-pin relimate connectors, which are likely used to connect I2C peripherals or other modules to the I2C bus through the multiplexer.
Component List
ESP32 (30 pin)
- Description: A 30-pin microcontroller with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities.
- Purpose: Acts as the central processing unit of the circuit, controlling the I2C multiplexer and interfacing with external devices through the relimate connectors.
Adafruit TCA9548A
- Description: An I2C multiplexer that allows for multiple I2C devices to be connected to a single I2C bus.
- Purpose: Expands the I2C capabilities of the ESP32 by providing 8 additional I2C buses.
5 pin relimate connectors
- Description: Connectors with 5 pins including power (VCC), ground (GND), I2C data (SDA), I2C clock (SCL), and an address line (ADDR).
- Purpose: These connectors are likely used to interface the ESP32 and the TCA9548A with external I2C devices or modules.
