EdgeS3[D] uses an M.2 B-Key edge connector to allow you to insert and remove this module from a carrier PCB using an compatible M.2 B-Key socket. No more single use soldering of modules onto your boards while prototyping, which allows you to have less boards and move them between projects easily.

EdgeS3[D] also included is an onboard IO Expander with an additional 8x IO broken out to the connector, for those demanding applications that require just a few more IO..

EdgeS3[D] include everything you'd expect in a full featured board from Unexpected Maker - Onboard 3V3 regulator, battery charging and monitoring, excellent deep sleep and a finely tuned RF layout, it also has ESD protection for those of us that forget we are a walking static charge machine!

Two antenna options - one board!

EdgeS3[D] includes an onboard antenna and a u.FL connector for an external antenna on the same board, and you can switch which antenna to use via the RF switch on the fly from inside your code!

The onboard antenna is selected by default, so you never need to worry about the RF switch being in a bad state, or the ESP32-S3 getting damaged if you forget to plug in an external antenna

Shipping policy

All products purchased on this store ship directly from me here in Melbourne, Australia.

Orders are processed daily and usually go out the same day they are paid for - allowing for time zone differences of course.

Finally, postage rates suck, sorry :( I'm embarrassed by how much it costs to ship items overseas since COVID, and I do my best to improve rates where I can.

Postage delivery times, if stated, are based on current expectations from Australia Post and may vary.

Please keep in mind that there are still occasional postage delays, including flights out of Australia and inbound customs processing into many countries.

This product does not ship to United States.
