Overview

Low-power monitor for storage spaces. An ESP32 reads gas, proximity, acceleration and humidity sensors and transmits over Wi-Fi/BLE with antenna switching; it runs from a battery with a charger and an ultra-low-quiescent buck.

Design challenges solved

  1. Power budget for battery operation (60 nA Iq buck, linear charger).
  2. RF switch for antenna selection.
