LaskaKit ESPwled

Product detailed description

Are you looking for a board that is compatible with the WLED project, which makes it easy to control a variety of LED strips without programming? Then you don't have to look any further. To load the WLED program into Laskakit ESPwled simply from the project web browser.

First you connect the board via USB-C cable and then the ESP32-C3, on which the board is based, into recording mode. To do this, press and hold the FLASH button, press and release the RESET button, and then release the FLASH button. Then select the connected Laskakit ESPwled board in the browser and load the program. You connect to the AP (Wi-Fi access point) that ESPwled has created via your phone, for example, and fill in your Wi-Fi name and password. Then ESPwled connects to your wifi and you control the connected LED strips via your browser on your phone, computer or tablet.

The DAt GPIO pin that is used to control the LED strips is 5, not pin 2 as it is in the default WLED settings -> so it is in the WLED settings to change this pin via the web browser. If the LED strip also has a CLK signal, it is connected to GPIO 4.

The board itself also contains our universal I2C usup connector to which you can connect various sensors - SHT40 (temperature, humidity), BME280 (pressure, temperature, humidity), SCD41 (CO2, temperature, humidity), BH1750 (lighting), APDS-9960 (gesture sensor) and many other sensors.
Our I2C upstream connector is compatible with Adafruit Stemma and Qwiik from Sparkfun.
The I2C bus is connected as follows, SDA GPIO10, SCL GPIO8. It is necessary to add a definition of which PINs are on which before initializing the i2c module: wire.begin(10, 8); // (SDA,SCL)

In addition to the I2C uplink connector, the board has an SPI uplink connector to which you can connect other SPI peripherals.

ESPwled has an addressable LED connected to GPIO 9. To control this LED we have a custom sample code on our github.

You may need additional ones: The board comes without LED connector, the pitch is 2.54mm. You can buy 1pc 4pin JST-XH rectangular or 2pc 2 pin screw terminals for PCB KF128-2.54 or pin rail. Suitable pigtail with IPEX3 connector for IPEX versions - Pigtail MHF3/IPEX3 - SMA Female, cable 1,15mm, 15cm

Default WLED firmware does not support microphone input for ESP32-C3 (ESPwled), if microphone input is needed, you need to compile WLED firmware with different settings.
