Inspired by the unique SMD pins design of the RICK TNY, we're now introducing the Seeed Studio XIAO Plus boards (available in XIAO nRF52840 Plus, XIAO nRF52840 Sense Plus, and XIAO ESP32-S3 Plus) to include an updated design of more castellations and a new pad layout on the back.
Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32-S3 Plus, powered by ESP32-S3's 240MHz Xtensa 32-bit LX7 dual-core processor, brings more SMD pins to the tiny versatile XIAO ESP32-S3. While maintaining all the powerful features including WiFi and BLE 5.0 wireless connectivities, 2.4GHz Rod antenna, and ultra-low power consumption of 14μA in deep sleep mode with lithium battery charging management, the Plus variant features redesigned castellations and pad layout on the back, offering 9 additional GPIOs specifically for advanced Bluetooth projects requiring expanded I/Os via SMD board-to-board soldering. It's ideal for advanced IoT projects, Smart Homes, and professional wireless devices requiring extra I/O connectivity. XIAO ESP32-S3 Plus additionally features an upgraded 16MB Flash memory for advanced applications.
Production-Ready Design with Fusion PCBA Support
As a new addition to the Seeed Studio XIAO family, the XIAO ESP32S3 Plus remains the classic XIAO design (thumb-size, SMD, stamp holes). All these features make it a perfect fit for either space-limited applications, or a production-ready System on Module (SoM) for your PCBA designs. With our Seeed Studio Fusion services, you can access competitive one-stop PCBA manufacturing, component sourcing, and testing, plus free DFA/DFM review to reduce manufacturing risks and accelerate the journey from prototype to production.
Note
XIAO SoM User Manual open-sources all hardware and software materials of XIAO, providing professional product design guidelines to help you accelerate ideas off the ground, streamline product design, providing a seamless experience from module selection to mass production.
