The goal of this project is to design a smart door/window sensor reducing power consumption(in deep sleep/standby) with a custom power latch. Optimizing the deep sleep power consumption of battery-powered smart devices ensures a long battery life cycle.
Github repo: github.com/salvatoreraccardi/...
The current was measured with Nordic's power profiler kit, knowing that the current measured is less than the measurement range of this power profiler. I did several tests to verify the accuracy of the data. In any case the accuracy of the data, the consumption would be less than 200nA and this is a very good result considering that a similar device at a power consumption of 6-8uA.

9:28 you could, if you wanted, to make that part of the plastic behind the battery terminals separatable from the rest of the plastic which supports the board so you can remove everything if needed. It is not much more complex if at all and it should be sturdy enough because all goes into bigger case which would hold it together.
@PA8HRX 11 місяців тому
Very nice done. I like it that you grab yourself the target and keep on improving it. It’s a nice combination of mechanical and electric engineering, like the details on the battery bay and the lid. Details. Although I also very much like the versatile and addictive ESP-32, could you imagine using a more power friendly chip?
@SalvatoreRaccardi 11 місяців тому
Thank you! The next step is to use the nRF52840 and try ESP32-C6.

Thank you for your efforts searching for low power solutions. I have gone through this few years ago. But after all my experiments, I have a Window/door sensor and water level sensor which is lot simpler. It does not require reed switch or any special power circuit.It just power down the whole esp32 when door is closed.When door is open it wakes up and send message to gateway.
@SalvatoreRaccardi 5 місяців тому
The reed switch/ hall effect sensor is present in all door and window sensors, it is not an extra element but essential. My circuit is not complex, I use very simple and inexpensive components, you only need to take an engineering class to understand the simplicity of the design.
@gsge 5 місяців тому
@@SalvatoreRaccardi I am glad I am not engineer. Engineers tends to over engineer things. I wanted to show you simplest door/window sensor which requires only bare ESP8266 module, few metal short wires and a battery supplying 3 to 3.6 volts with special software and it can do everything you do with your circuit here but with better energy efficiency. And it will be 1/3rd in cost and size of your design here. But I will do it when you come out of your engineer mindset. I have spent 40 years tearing apart electronics to understand them.
@deslomeslager 4 місяці тому
@@gsgeSometimes a door is not closed properly, and wind pushes it open. So you push harder to close it. But oops. The read switch has woken up the circuit, but misses the closing of the door. Your version, using wires, will always see the current state. No need to remember the previous state, either your gateway does this, or you can make the circuit smarter. I know 40 years of experience still can beat smart designs. KISS. On the other hand, Salvatore is making a very nice project of this, and if he uses out of the box materials (not PCB way stuff or 3D stuff), it would be for more people. However he has his own subscribers which seem to like his approach. Note: I just came here because YT promoted this video and can say Salvatore is on the right track. But (all) our tracks do not need to be the same.
@the_rafa0398 11 місяців тому
Very nice project, i like it. I see is not so easy to reflash once the module is assembled. Have you thought using the over the air reflashing? Well to implement that may help you, but it will also depend how often you think you need reflashing the modules
@SalvatoreRaccardi 11 місяців тому
Good point, with the power latch I developed you could use OTA but under the condition that you trigger the sensor first. I'll add this feature to the Todo list for the next version.

Why not using a ultra low power microcontroller to offload simpler tasks from the main system? You could do a lot more, including smarter pin monitoring, use wake up interruptions on pin edges, timer, etc. This is possible using the sleep mode that would bring power consumption down to around 100nA. I know that's more power than your circuit is draining, but it does a lot more. It is an interesting tradeoff.
@SalvatoreRaccardi 3 місяці тому
Your point is right, but the goal was to develop as simple a solution as possible with the ESP32C3. I also developed a version with a microcontroller that does the supervisor work, but from my point of view it is a solution(supervisor microcontroller + ESP32C3) not suitable for mass production. Surely ,it would make sense to use an Ultra low power micrcontroller + RF(BLE/zigbee etc). When developing a product you have to simplify the design as much as possible, in my point of view.
@marcuscps 3 місяці тому
@@SalvatoreRaccardi I understand your angle. IMHO the supervisor is superior, especially because it is a general and flexible solution, extensible for other applications, and you can even update the supervisor firmware from the ESP. In the end the scale could make it worth the extra complexity. Some microcontroller are less than 50p.

Impressive result If I understand correctly, the RC delay (R10, C8, C12) is basically the time for MCU to respond and latch on the main MOSFET to prevent the circuit from switching off again? Toggling AUTO_TURN_OFF must be the first operation after the MCU wakes up?
@SalvatoreRaccardi 8 місяців тому

@NicksStuff 3 місяці тому
Sadly I didn't understand. Here's what I thought you would do: Use a normally closed reed switch (that will be open when the window is closed) directly on the power line. When the window is opened, the ESP32 is powered up and the first thing it does, is turn on a transistor that's in parallel with the switch, sends its state to the MQTT broker or whatever and goes to deep sleep. When the windows is closed, the bounce of the reed switch means the ESP32 will be woken up, turn on that same transistor, sends its new state to the MQTT broker and turn off the transistor, so cutting all power. Could you explain why my solution isn't good and how yours work in greater details?
@SalvatoreRaccardi Місяць тому
First of all thank you for your comment, I am just seeing it now. I explain in detail how the circuit works from minute 4:10. I don't really understand your idea, I would need a schematic to understand better. In any case, have you tested your solution?

Great video, two questions for you. 1. If you only transmit when the sensor state changes, how does the controller know if this sensor is "online" if the sensor state hasn't changed for days? (like ring, zwave, etc controllers know that their sensors are "online"). 2. If you changed to wake up from deep sleep and transmit the state every 5 seconds, how long do you think the batteries will last?
@SalvatoreRaccardi 4 місяці тому
Note that all WiFi smart sensors have the following problem, which can be solved by scheduling wake-up every hour. Every 5 seconds is inefficient. In some applications it is not necessary to know whether the sensors are online. If they are sensors for apartment security, yes, but if they are for turning on a light or making a simple measurement, it is not necessary to know if the sensor is online. It all depends on the application.

Buongiorno, il progetto è open source (puoi trovare lo schema elettrico su github). Conosco il progetto "trigboard", purtroppo ha dei consumi molto alti in "deep sleep" ~1.5uA, io per adesso sono arriviato fino a ~20nA.
