PROJECT DESCRIPTION

An ESP32 board connected to a W5500 Ethernet module and a digital LED strip, with visible wiring and connections. The ESP32 is programmed using Arduino 3.0, and there are labels indicating 'W5500 Ethernet SPI Driver' and 'Digital LED Strip i2c Driver'. The setup is placed on a clean workspace with a laptop running Arduino IDE displaying code. LED strip is lit up in various colors, showing the connection and control.

The Test-W5500-with-PSRAM project is designed to test and demonstrate the integration of an ESP32 board with a W5500 Ethernet module and a digital LED strip. The primary goal is to create a network-connected LED control system using the ESP32 microcontroller, leveraging the Arduino 3.0 framework for programming and development.

Key Features

ESP32-Arduino 3.0 Integration: Utilizing the powerful ESP32 board, programmed through the Arduino 3.0 framework, for robust and flexible development.
W5500 Ethernet Module: Implementing the W5500 SPI Ethernet driver to enable wired network connectivity.
Digital LED Strip Control: Managing a digital LED strip using i2c communication, providing vibrant and dynamic lighting effects.

Project Components

ESP32 Board: The central microcontroller used for handling network communication and controlling the LED strip.
W5500 Ethernet Module: A hardware module used to provide Ethernet connectivity to the ESP32, allowing for stable and high-speed network connections.
Digital LED Strip: A strip of LEDs that can be individually controlled via i2c protocol to create various lighting patterns and effects.
Arduino IDE: The integrated development environment used for programming the ESP32, providing a user-friendly interface for code development and uploading.

Configuration Details

Ethernet Configuration: Uncomment the useETH directive to enable the W5500 Ethernet SPI driver for network communication.
sACN Library: Comment out asyncACN to disable this library if using an alternative sACN library.
LED Driver Setup: Comment out ledriver and uncomment fastled to switch to using the FASTLED library for LED control without the i2c driver.
