ESP32-based replacement PCB for the Deye/Sofar/Igen/Solarman/... LSW-5 Stick Logger with RS-485

This is a replacement ESP32-S3 daughterboard for the "LSW-5" Stick Logger (FCC ID 2A4FRLSW-5).

It replaces the original board, which is based on a Hi-Flying HF-LPT270 [^lpt270] (BL602 inside[^lpt270-why-not]). With an ESP32-S3, it enables ESPHome support while keeping the Stick Logger's modern, minimalistic appearance intact[^rs485-hole].

Target Device: LSW-5 Stick Logger, FCC ID: 2A4FRLSW-5 and others (for example, mine, which does not have an FCC ID printed on it). May also fit the 2BC8DLSW-5 (not verified, no internal photos), or other types of Stick Logger. If your Stick Logger looks…

LSW5-ESP32 design files

The KiCad project lives in the mwdmwd/lsw5-esp32 repository on GitHub; these links point at the commit this page was built from.

LSW5-ESP32: common questions

What microcontroller does the LSW5-ESP32 use?

The LSW5-ESP32 is built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1U, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the LSW5-ESP32 PCB?

The LSW5-ESP32 measures 35 × 52 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the LSW5-ESP32?

36 components, from 25 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the LSW5-ESP32 design files?

From the mwdmwd/lsw5-esp32 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the LSW5-ESP32 design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with mwdmwd. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the LSW5-ESP32 without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
