CODEPROVEN ESP32 BENCH SIDEKICK

"Measure before you trust it. Hardware-locked calculations."

Hardware Rules locked to Espressif specs: 3.3V Max ADC Limit · 40mA Absolute Silicon Ceiling · 12-Bit SAR Precision

ADC Voltage Divider Max Safe Vout: 3.3V

Scale safe inputs for complex sensor arrays, 5V modules, and 12V LiPo batteries.

Quick Resistor Pairs: 5V → 10k/20k 12V → 10k/3.3k 9V → 10k/4.7k
Output Voltage to ESP32 Pin: 2.98 V
Recommended: Use 11dB Attenuation configuration in code.
⚠️ CRITICAL HIGH VOLTAGE: Vout exceeds ESP32 3.3V absolute threshold! You will fry this GPIO pin. Increase R1 or decrease R2.

GPIO Load Current & Limiter Max 40mA

Verify if complex loads (Relays, High-Power LEDs, Motors) can run directly from an ESP32 pin.

Required Current Limiting Resistor: 86.67 Ohms
Power rating: ~19.5 mW (Standard 1/4W resistor safe)
Rule: Keep continuous GPIO currents ≤ 20mA. Switch heavy coils using 2N2222 NPN or Logic-Level MOSFETs.
