Buy Me A Coffee

A simple PCB design using EasyEDA to work with this projects by me:

Order from OSH Park

BOM list

Component Where to buy
ESP32 Dev Board (38 pins, this exact board) AliExpress
OLED Display 128x32 (0.91 inch) (optional) AliExpress
SD Card/MicroSD Card Module (Choose only one! I recommend the Standard SD module) AliExpress
4 channel Logical Level Shifter (highly recommended) AliExpress
Female Pin Header with 40 pins (you need at least 38 pins, or 2 with 20pins) AliExpress
PushButton 4.5x4.5mm (any height) - ONLY REV. 1 AliExpress
PushButton 6x6mm (any height) - ONLY REV. 2 (still W.I.P.) AliExpress
5k or 10k resistor AliExpress
MicroUSB Female (optional, but mandatory if you want the charging module) AliExpress
Charging Module with StepUp (5V) - DD05CVSA (optional) AliExpress
Micro Switch - SS-12D00G3 (optional, but mandatory if you want the charging module) AliExpress
2000mah Li-Po Battery (optional, but mandatory if you want the charging module) AliExpress
AGB Link Port Connector (optional) AliExpress
RGB LED 5mm (optional) AliExpress
220 Ohms resistor (if you want the LED) AliExpress

How to build

  • First of all, solder the resistors, RGB led, button, the level shifter, USB port, and the female pin bar (oh, and the AGB link port, if you have one)
  • Put a little bit of in the RGB led jumper to bridge the middle pad to one of the other pads. (If you want a passthrough USB power, make bridge pads too)
  • Cut all remaining legs
  • Solder the SD/Micro SD module
  • Cut all remaining legs
  • Solder the male pin head for the charging module (but don't solder the module yet)
  • Cut all remaining legs
  • Solder the display and the battery
  • Cut all remaining legs
  • Solder the charging module into the pins

I highly recommend to add some tape to prevent any unwanted contact between the modules (on SD/MicroSD, charging module and display to be more specific) and the solder points
