Esp32-Stick-PoE-A-Cam
Esp32-Stick-PoE-A-Cam
What is it?
This is an upgraded version of Esp32-Stick development board with Ethernet and active PoE support. The board supports camera and uses Esp32-S3 chip.
Why did you make it?
It was made because the original Esp32-Stick boards lacked the camera support. Moreover it was impossible to handle both the camera and the Ethernet using classic vanilla Esp32 since both peripherals require a lot of pins. So we decided to build the upgraded board around Esp32-S3, which has much more pins and W5500 SPI ethernet module.
What makes it special?
Pin-to-pin compatibility with other Esp32-Stick-Cam boards, Camera, Machine Learning examples and active PoE support!
- Ov2640 and Ov5640 Camera support.
- 36 Gpios(17 are not used by Ethernet or the camera)
- USB Type-C
- Esp32-Stick-Poe-A-Cam has 5V output, so you can power additional peripherals.
- Esp32-Stick-Cam boards are fully programmable in Arduino and are supported in ESPHome home automation environment.
- No external USB-UART converter is required, ready for plug-and-play programming!
- All the Esp32-Stick-Cam boards have the same length and width so they can easily be replaced with one another.
- Any code written for one board is compatible with another because they share the same CPU and pinout.
Characteristics
- ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 (N16R8) with 16MB Flash, 8MB ram.
- USB-C connector.
- 36 Gpios(17 are not used by Ethernet or the camera).
- W5500 chip for the Ethernet.
- Si3404-A(PoE-A)
- CH340G USB-UART converter.
- USER-Led(GPIO2).
- Reset button and User button(GPIO0).
- Accepts power through: USB, External source (3.3V-5V),Active POE
- the 3.3V branch(Ams1117) can provide 700mA of current, the 5V branch(Si3404-A) also provides 700mA.
