Hello everyone,
I am looking for some help in my design,
I created a automatic irrigator, with a ESP32. and I have this questions
1.-I have selected efficient and production ICs? (IP5306, MP1700T, MP2338)
2.- J8 is connected to a solar pannel (6v 100mA) that is going to charge a li-on battery?
3.- is that the correct connection for a minimum system for ESP32? I am programming it through ESP-PROG, usb type c is just used as power supply and charge the battery.
any query please let me know, thank you! 1753736372258.png

Maybe, depends on how much current the system uses and how much the sun shines where you are.

From a brief glance, it all looks OK apart from the outputs. How do they work? You can't drive much from a PC817.

It is certainly complex for an irrigation control that does not seem to include a moisture sensing input.
Is the TS willing to explain just what it actually would be doing???
