PCB Layout Design
This chapter introduces the key points of how to design an ESP32-S3 PCB layout using an ESP32-S3 module (see
Figure ESP32-S3 Reference PCB Layout) as an example.

4.1 General Principles of PCB Layout
It is recommended to use a four-layer PCB design:
• Layer 1 (TOP): Signal traces and components.
• Layer 2 (GND): No signal traces here to ensure a complete GND plane.
