Portable equipment that can operate from a battery pack or an external power source (such as a wall-adapter or external supply) needs to be able to smoothly switch between the two power sources. This application note describes a circuit (Figure 1) that switches power sources with good efficiency and without switching noise. Figure 1.
When supplying electricity from two power sources, the simplest circuit is to connect the two power sources together. There is a condition, however, that users should only connect one of them, either USB or battery. When supplying from USB, you must remove the battery, and when supplying from the battery, you must remove the USB.
For the battery-powered ESP32-DevkitC, I would like to implement two power supply methods: USB and battery. When supplying electricity from two power sources, the simplest circuit is to connect the two power sources together. There is a condition, however, that users should only connect one of them, either USB or battery.
I decided to use a Schottky barrier diode for the USB power supply and an ideal diode for the battery power supply to configure the OR circuit. This enabled automatic power switching: power is supplied from the USB when the USB is connected, and power is supplied from the battery when the USB is disconnected.
A similar version of this article appeared in the May 13, 2002 issue of Electronic Design magazine. Portable equipment that can operate from a battery pack or an external power source (such as a wall-adapter or external supply) needs to be able to smoothly switch between the two power sources.
The microprocessor-supervisory circuit (U1 in Figure 1) acts as a wall-source detector and debouncer. It monitors the wall supply and switches from battery power to the wall supply only when the wall supply is stable and has been at or above U1's trip voltage for a period of time.

External (non-USB) power can come either from an AC-to-DC adapter (wall-wart) or battery. The adapter can be connected by plugging a 2.1mm center-positive plug into the board''s power jack. Leads from a battery can be inserted in the Gnd and Vin pin headers of the POWER connector. The board can operate on an external supply of 6 to 20 volts.
