To enable input\/output operation, bridge the IN-OUT solder pads. Bridging the rear USB-OTG solder pads enables power delivery to an attached USB peripheral for OTG use. Verify the selected board and its power path before modifying solder jumpers. Install the matching FT232 or CH343 computer driver for USB serial communication.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDevelopment Software\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Arduino IDE, select \u003cstrong\u003eESP32S3 Dev Module\u003c\/strong\u003e and match the flash and PSRAM settings to the selected memory configuration.
