esp32-c3-devkitC-02
I got some esp32-c3-devkitC-02
from the hardware schematic i seethe RGB LED is SK68XXMINI-HS
I used adafruit neopixel library to drive this RGB LED. it's one wire or i2c or something. Pin 8
talk to it via I2C
damn trying to get the boot flashed.
this is what I'm going on now:

I'm having a lot of trouble with esp32-c3-mini-1
I can use arduino to flash stuff, but the script never starts.
Serial monitor show 0x7 and 0x10 on repeating cycle.
I think it needs series of pin setting on boot to work.

so which pins are for I2C SDA/SCL ?
Lots of conflicting docs.
I forced the issue like this:
void setup() { Wire.setPins(sda_pin, scl_pin); Wire.begin(); ... }
want to make the on board neopixel work? use the neopixel library and set pin to 8.
Here is a web server that exposes BME 280 sensors in a prometheus friendly way:
- uses neopixel to communicate wifi communication status
- uses serial for diag debug output.

aka WRL-18036
basedon ESP32-C3-MINI-1 chip

gotchas:
set I2C wires to pin 0 and pin1 , means pin 9 and 10 on the board
#define I2C_SDA 0 #define I2C_SCL 1 ... void setup() { Wire.setPins(I2C_SDA, I2C_SCL); Wire.begin(); ... }
Scripts
- /esp32_i2c_scanner - it's possible to talk i2c over several pairs. In fact it's not clear if the default works. https://docs.espressif.com/projects/arduino-esp32/en/latest/tutorials/io_mux.html#usage-examples
