# WijiBoard Wiring Diagram
|
||
|
||
This document outlines the hardware connections for the WijiBoard.
|
||
|
||
## Hardware Components
|
||
- **Microcontroller**: Tenstar Robot ESP32-C3 Super Mini
|
||
- **Motors**: 2× 28BYJ-48 (5V Stepper Motors)
|
||
- **Motor Drivers**: 2× ULN2003 Driver Boards
|
||
- **Power System**:
|
||
- 4S LiPo Battery
|
||
- XH-M609 Battery Low-Voltage Disconnect Module
|
||
- 2× Buck Regulators (step-down converters tuned to 5V)
|
||
|

||
|
||
## Power Connections
|
||
The system is powered by a 4S LiPo battery. To protect the battery from over-discharge, it is connected to an **XH-M609** module. The output of the XH-M609 is split into two separate **Buck Regulators**, both tuned to output 5V.
|
||
|
||
1. **Buck Regulator 1 (MCU Power)**: Dedicated to powering the ESP32-C3 Super Mini.
|
||
2. **Buck Regulator 2 (Motor Power)**: Dedicated to powering both ULN2003 driver boards to prevent voltage drops or electrical noise from affecting the MCU.
|
||
|
||
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
||
> **Common Ground**: You MUST connect the Ground (GND) from the ESP32 to the Ground (GND) of the ULN2003 drivers. Even though they have separate 5V power supplies, they need a common ground reference for the GPIO logic signals to work correctly.

|
||
| **Buck 2 (Motors)**| `OUT+ (5V)` | ULN2003 (M1) `+ / 5V` and ULN2003 (M2) `+ / 5V` |
|
||
| **Buck 2 (Motors)**| `OUT- (GND)` | ULN2003 (M1) `- / GND` and ULN2003 (M2) `- / GND` |
|

||
## Stepper to Driver Connections
|
||
Simply plug the white 5-pin JST connectors from the 28BYJ-48 motors into the corresponding white sockets on their respective ULN2003 driver boards. The connector is keyed and only fits one way.

## Alternative Board Pinouts
|
||
|
||
The project supports multiple ESP32 variants. The main tables above show the default ESP32-C3 Super Mini. If you are using a different board, follow these logic connections:
|
||
|
||
### ESP32-S3 (e.g. DevKitC)
|
||
| Motor | IN1 | IN2 | IN3 | IN4 |
|
||
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
|
||
| **Motor 1 (Right)** | GPIO 4 | GPIO 5 | GPIO 6 | GPIO 7 |
|
||
| **Motor 2 (Left)** | GPIO 15 | GPIO 16 | GPIO 17 | GPIO 18 |
|
||
|
||
### ESP32-WROOM (e.g. NodeMCU / DevKit V1)
|
||
| Motor | IN1 | IN2 | IN3 | IN4 |
|
||
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
|
||
| **Motor 1 (Right)** | GPIO 13 | GPIO 14 | GPIO 27 | GPIO 26 |
|
||
| **Motor 2 (Left)** | GPIO 25 | GPIO 33 | GPIO 32 | GPIO 23 |
