NodeMCU ESP32 is a microcontroller with integrated WiFi and Bluetooth modules. Very easy to use, it’s lightweight and has a memory and calculation capacity superior to that of the Arduino. This makes it an ideal board for learning programming, developing connected objects or servers.
Microcontroller features
The NodeMCU ESP32 microcontroller uses the ESP-WROOM-32 microprocessor (Tensilica Xtensa LX6). This processor operates at a clock frequency of 240 MHz, with 520 kB RAM, 448 kB EEPROM and 4000 kB Flash memory (for programming and data logging).

The microcontroller has a WiFi chip, enabling it to connect to the local network, create a server or create its own network for other devices to connect to. The microcontroller has a Bluetooth chip that enables it to interact with other devices.
Power supply
The NodeMCU ESP32 microcontroller operates over a voltage range of 7-12V, thanks to its on-board voltage regulator, while the microprocessor operates with a voltage of 3.3V. In normal operation, the microcontroller consumes up to 45mA (if no power is supplied) and can accept a maximum current of 40mA on each of its IO pins.
