3.Functional Description
3.1. CPU
The ESP8285 integrates a Tensilica L106 32-bit RISC processor, which achieves extra- low
power consumption and reaches a maximum clock speed of 160 MHz. The Real-Time
Operating System (RTOS) and Wi-Fi stack allow 80% of the processing power to be
available for user application programming and development. The CPU includes the
interfaces as below:
Programmable RAM/ROM interfaces (iBus), which can be connected with memory
•
controller, and can also be used to visit flash;
•
Data RAM interface (dBus), which can connected with memory controller;
AHB interface which can be used to visit the register.
•
3.2. Memory
3.2.1. Internal SRAM and ROM
ESP8285 SoC integrates the memory controller including ROM and SRAM. MCU can
access the memory controller through iBus, dBus, and AHB interfaces. All memory units
can be accessed upon request. A memory arbiter determines the running sequence in the
!
arrival order of requests.
3.2.2. SPI Flash
ESP8285 has a built-in SPI flash to store user programs.
Memory size: 1 MB
•
SPI mode: Dual SPI
•
3.3. Crystal Oscillator
ESP-WROOM-5C uses a 26-MHz crystal oscillator. The accuracy of the crystal oscillator
should be ±10 PPM.
When using the download tool, please select the right type of crystal oscillator. In circuit

design, capacitors C1 and C2 which connect to the earth are added to the input and
output terminals of the crystal oscillator respectively. The values of the two capacitors can
be flexible, ranging from 6 pF to 22 pF, however, the specific capacitive values depend on
further testing of, and adjustment to, the overall performance of the whole circuit. Normally,
the capacitive values of C1 and C2 are within 10 pF for the 26-MHz crystal oscillator.

Currently the PWM interface has four channels, but users can extend it
to five channels. PWM interface can realize the control of LED lights,
buzzers, relays, electronic machines, etc.
The functionality of the infrared remote control interface can be realized
via software programming. The interface uses NEC coding, modulation,
and demodulation. The frequency of the modulated carrier signal is 38
kHz. (You can configure this interface to other GPIO)
Connects to external sensors and display screens, etc. (You can
configure this interface to other GPIO)
Communicates with the UART device.
Downloading: U0TXD + U0RXD or GPIO2 + U0RXD
Communicating (UART0): You need to exchange the inner pins of UART
in the software before use IO15 (U0TXD) and IO13 (U0RXD).

4.3.Power Consumption
The following power consumption data were obtained from the tests with a 3.3V power
supply and a voltage stabilizer, in 25°C ambient temperature. All data are based on 50%
duty cycle in continuous transmission mode.
① Modem-sleep mode is used in the applications that require the CPU to be working, as in PWM or I2S
applications. According to 802.11 standards (like U-APSD), it shuts down the Wi-Fi Modem circuit while
maintaining a Wi-Fi connection with no data transmission to optimize power consumption. E.g. in DTIM3,
maintaining a sleep of 300 ms with a wakeup of 3 ms cycle to receive AP’s Beacon packages at interval
requires about 15 mA current.
② During Light-sleep mode, the CPU may be suspended in applications like Wi-Fi switch. Without data
transmission, the Wi-Fi Modem circuit can be turned off and CPU suspended to save power
consumption according to the 802.11 standards (U-APSD). E.g. in DTIM3, maintaining a sleep of 300 ms
with a wakeup of 3 ms to receive AP’s Beacon packages at interval requires about 0.9 mA current.
③ During Deep-sleep mode,Wi-Fi is turned off. For applications with long time lags between data
transmission, e.g. a temperature sensor that detects the temperature every 100s, sleeps for 300s and
wakes up to connect to the AP (taking about 0.3 ~ 1s), the overall average current is less than 1 mA. The
current of 20 μA is acquired at the voltage of 2.5V.
