ESP32 WROOM DA module with dual antenna built in
Posted: Wed Feb 18, 2026 9:08 pm
Hi All,
I got a couple of modules from a local supplier. I have a programming board for normal esp32 modules (single antenna) which works fine, but when I try to put the DA module in it the "wings" containing the antennas foul the on the pins on the programming module. My understanding is that the actual antennas are close to the "point" of the module, so I'm wondering if it's safe to trim away some of the plastic that is fouling the pins. If I trim the plastic will it affect the performance of the module?
Thanks, Ian
