esp32-c3-devkitC-02

I got some esp32-c3-devkitC-02

Reference: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32c3/hw-reference/esp32c3/user-guide-devkitc-02.html

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

damn trying to get the boot flashed.

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.

Solution

The first thing I did was get esp-idf and try it's hellow world. that worked.

then I googled somemore and someone said: set flash mode to DIO, not QIO.

Sure enough I was set to QIO , I set to DIO and suddenly stuff starts wirking.

note I'm betting that I did not choose the correct board in arduino ide board manager. I was faffing about with "ESP32 C3" , "ESP32 S3 mini", "ESP32 C3 Dev module".

the vendor's docs for esp-idf mention that with dev board "menuconfig" should have "disable multi cpu", this indicate that in arduino not using the "Dev Module" option might have some material difference.

Anywho, I can get the neo pixel hello world in arduino to work now, so I'm happy ( recall GPIO 8 is the address for the neo pixel lirbary to use for this board , same as the previous ESP32 that I used.

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:

https://github.com/drthornt/arduino_projects/blob/master/webserver_and_neopixel/webserver_and_neopixel.ino

  • uses neopixel to communicate wifi communication status
  • uses serial for diag debug output.

ESP32-C3 Mini Development Board

sparkfun board

aka WRL-18036

basedon ESP32-C3-MINI-1 chip

https://www.sparkfun.com/products/18036

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();
  ...
}
