ESP8266EX from Espressif Systems, in a QFN-32-EP(5x5). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VDDA power_in Analog supply pin, 2.5 V to 3.6 V.
2 LNA bidirectional RF antenna interface with chip output impedance of 39 + j6 Ω; a π-type matching network is recommended between the chip and the antenna.
3 VDD3P3 power_in Power amplifier supply, 2.5 V to 3.6 V.
4 VDD3P3 power_in Power amplifier supply, 2.5 V to 3.6 V.
5 VDD_RTC unconnected Listed as NC with a 1.1 V level in the pin table, so it is not for external connection.
6 TOUT input Internal ADC input that can measure VDD3P3 or the TOUT voltage (not both at once); when used with an external circuit the input range is 0 V to 1.0 V, and the hardware design requires this pin to be left floating.
7 CHIP_EN input Chip enable: high enables normal operation, low shuts the chip down with very low current.
8 XPD_DCDC bidirectional Deep-sleep wake-up pin, also GPIO16; only the internal pull-down can be enabled on this pad.
9 MTMS bidirectional GPIO14, also HSPI_CLK; can be configured with internal pull-up or pull-down and as a tri-state output.
10 MTDI bidirectional GPIO12, also HSPI_MISO.
11 VDDPST power_in Digital/IO supply, 1.8 V to 3.6 V.
12 MTCK bidirectional GPIO13, also HSPI_MOSI and UART0_CTS.
13 MTDO bidirectional GPIO15, also HSPI_CS and UART0_RTS; used with GPIO2 and GPIO0 for boot mode and SDIO mode selection.
14 GPIO2 bidirectional GPIO2, also UART1_TX usable when burning flash; used with GPIO0 and MTDO for boot mode and SDIO mode selection.
15 GPIO0 bidirectional GPIO0, also SPI_CS2; used with GPIO2 and MTDO for boot mode and SDIO mode selection.
16 GPIO4 bidirectional GPIO4, also PWM3.
17 VDDPST power_in Digital/IO supply, 1.8 V to 3.6 V.
18 SDIO_DATA_2 bidirectional Connected to SD_D2 through a 200 Ω series resistor; also HSPIHD and GPIO9.
19 SDIO_DATA_3 bidirectional Connected to SD_D3 through a 200 Ω series resistor; also SPIWP, HSPIWP and GPIO10.
20 SDIO_CMD bidirectional Connected to SD_CMD through a 200 Ω series resistor; also SPI_CS0 and GPIO11.
21 SDIO_CLK bidirectional Connected to SD_CLK through a 200 Ω series resistor; also SPI_CLK and GPIO6.
22 SDIO_DATA_0 bidirectional Connected to SD_D0 through a 200 Ω series resistor; also SPI_MISO and GPIO7.
23 SDIO_DATA_1 bidirectional Connected to SD_D1 through a 200 Ω series resistor; also SPI_MOSI and GPIO8.
24 GPIO5 bidirectional GPIO5, also IR RX.
25 U0RXD bidirectional UART0 RX usable when burning flash, also GPIO3.
26 U0TXD bidirectional UART0 TX usable when burning flash, also GPIO1 and SPI_CS1; should not be pulled low externally during power-up.
27 XTAL_OUT bidirectional Crystal oscillator output, which can also provide the clock input for BT.
28 XTAL_IN bidirectional Crystal oscillator input.
29 VDDD power_in Analog supply, 2.5 V to 3.6 V.
30 VDDA power_in Analog supply, 2.5 V to 3.6 V.
31 RES12K input Connect through a 12 kΩ series resistor to ground.
32 EXT_RSTB input External reset signal, active low.
33 GND power_in Ground (exposed pad), shown as pin 33 in the pin layout diagram; not listed in Table 2-1.
