Re: ESP32-CAM drawing 2.85mA in deep sleep?

I cant find schematics right now, but i believe that LDO is drawing that much when it is in deep sleep. I've been reading about this as well. The 1117 LDOs that the generic DEVKITs use are not very efficient. There are other boards that have better LDOs on them. One person's calculations on a few b...

I'm just a beginner with embedded controllers, and my interest is more in the devkit rather than the actual "chips", but here are a few items I've thought of: * [esp32] Totally agree with more DMA accessible RAM that others have said. As attached displays and streaming are growing more and more, you...
