Help with LiPo Power and Vext Control on ESP32-C3 PCB Design
Posted: Tue Oct 15, 2024 3:42 pm
Hello everyone,
I am currently designing a PCB based on the ESP32-C3, and I need help integrating a LiPo battery for power management and controlling the Vext pin for switching between external and battery power. I am a bit unsure how to properly design the circuitry for:
1-Safely charging the LiPo battery while using the ESP32-C3.
2-Managing power switching between the battery and an external power source (Vext control).
3-Monitoring battery level to ensure proper power management.
Could anyone provide some guidance or examples on how to integrate the LiPo charging circuit with the ESP32-C3 and manage the Vext control? Any help or references to similar designs would be much appreciated!
Thank you in advance!
