Show HN: ESP32-S3 PowerFeather – low power, lipo/li-ion and solar dev board (powerfeather.dev)
2 points by powerfeatherdev 10 months ago | hide | past | favorite
A few months ago, I launched an ESP32 dev board I designed & developed. It's called the ESP32-S3 PowerFeather, and it's focused towards low-power, lipo/li-ion & solar powered projects. It uses the I2C-controllable Texas Instruments BQ25628E as the charger IC, and has an on-board Onsemi LC709204F battery fuel gauge, giving users tons of power management and monitoring capabilities. I've provided an open-source helper library, called PowerFeather-SDK, to help users use these power-related capabilities. It's compatible with both Arduino and ESP-IDF:

I've created a demo app for the board and SDK, and wrote about it on Hackster.io:

There is also further documentation on:

https://docs.powerfeather.dev/

Please do check it out and let me know what you think.
