3.10 Typical Layout Problems and Solutions 27
3.10.1 Q: The current ripple is not large, but the TX performance of RF is rather poor. 27
3.10.2 Q: The power ripple is small, but RF TX performance is poor. 27
3.10.3 Q: When ESP32-S3 sends data packages, the power value is much higher or lower than the
target power value, and the EVM is relatively poor. 28
3.10.4 Q: TX performance is not bad, but the RX sensitivity is low. 28
