Product Description
What You Need
ESP32-DevKitC V4 board
USB A / micro USB B cable
Computer running Windows, Linux, or macOS
Overview
ESP32-DevKitC V4 is a small-sized ESP32-based development board produced. Most of the I/O pins are broken out to the pin headers on both sides for easy interfacing. Developers can either connect peripherals with jumper wires or mount ESP32-DevKitC V4 on a breadboard. To cover a wide range of user requirements, the following versions of ESP32-DevKitC V4 are available:
different ESP32 modules
ESP32-WROOM-32
ESP32-WROOM-32D
ESP32-WROOM-32U
ESP32-SOLO-1
ESP32-WROVER
ESP32-WROVER-B
ESP32-WROVER-I
ESP32-WROVER-B (IPEX)
male or female pin headers.
Functional Description
The following figure and the table below describe the key components, interfaces and controls of the ESP32-DevKitC V4 board.
ESP32-WROOM-32 | A module with ESP32 at its core. |
EN | Reset button. |
Boot | Download button. Holding down Boot and then pressing EN initiates Firmware Download mode for downloading firmware through the serial port. |
USB-to-UART Bridge | Single USB-UART bridge chip provides transfer rates of up to 3 Mbps. |
Micro USB Port | USB interface. Power supply for the board as well as the communication interface between a computer and the ESP32 module. |
5V Power On LED | Turns on when the USB or an external 5V power supply is connected to the board. For details see the schematics in Related Documents. |
I/O | Most of the pins on the ESP module are broken out to the pin headers on the board. You can program ESP32 to enable multiple functions such as PWM, ADC, DAC, I2C, I2S, SPI, etc. |
!NoteThe pins D0, D1, D2, D3, CMD and CLK are used internally for communication between ESP32 and SPI flash memory. They are grouped on both sides near the USB connector. Avoid using these pins, as it may disrupt access to the SPI flash memory / SPI RAM.
!NoteThe pins GPIO16 and GPIO17 are available for use only on the boards with the modules ESP32-WROOM and ESP32-SOLO-1. The boards with ESP32-WROVER modules have the pins reserved for internal use.
Power Supply OptionsThere are three mutually exclusive ways to provide power to the board:
Micro USB port, default power supply
5V / GND header pins
3V3 / GND header pins
!WarningThe power supply must be provided using
one and only one of the options above, otherwise the board and/or the power supply source can be damaged.
Note on C15The component C15 may cause the following issues on earlier ESP32-DevKitC V4 boards:
The board may boot into Download mode
If you output clock on GPIO0, C15 may impact the signal
In case these issues occur, please remove the component. The figure below shows C15 highlighted in yellow.

Start Application DevelopmentBefore powering up your ESP32-DevKitC V4, please make sure that the board is in good condition with no obvious signs of damage.
After that, proceed to Get Started, where Section Installation Step by Step will quickly help you set up the development
environment and then flash an example project onto your board.
