Re: ESP32-S3 dev board wroom-1 - pins 8 and 9 shorted

It's a board from Aliexpress marked WROOM-1 N16R8, so I suppose it's not Espressif official, but it looks very similar to DevKitC-1 (not exactly the same, for example button placement is different).
In my case it's D - board is functional except of the pins I listed, the pins are shorted in pairs ...

Re: ESP32-S3 dev board wroom-1 - pins 8 and 9 shorted

Today i continued work on the device and just now discovered another pair of GPIOs shorted - pin 1 and pin 2.
I don't know if they were OK originally because i never checked resistance between them - just found out when i was checking for shorts between contacts on the board i'm making.
So, is it ...

Re: ESP32-S3 dev board wroom-1 - pins 8 and 9 shorted

Looks like some electric damage to pin 9, button works OK on another pin and doesn't cause the board to reset.
Pin 8 works fine with I2C, as long as pin 9 is not used.
Must be electrostatic discharge because i haven't connected anything with voltage to it.

ESP32-S3 dev board wroom-1 - pins 8 and 9 shorted

Hi, I'm trying to put a simple project together for ESP32-S3 wroom-1 board, but accidentally discovered that pins 8 and 9 are shorted.
Pin 8 i'm using for I2C, and pin 9 - for an encoder button.
When i was trying to handle the input from the encoder button, i discovered the board is resetting ...

Why two Python versions in default ESP-IDF tools installation

After installing ESP-IDF 5.4 via the web installer (Windows), i found the tools has two versions of Python in it. Why?

\idf-tools\python_env\idf5.4_py3.11_env\Scripts
and
\idf-tools\tools\idf-python\3.11.2

The question is related to my later attempt to configure ESP-IDF plugin in VSCode, or ...

Re: Powering ESP32 with Lithium battery (step up module)

You can supply 3.3V directly to the 3.3V pin bypassing the built-in voltage regulator, but make sure it's not above 3.6v (max allowed voltage according to spec)

compilation of esp-adf - howto

I see esp-adf repository links to some specific version of esp-idf (from 2020). But the installation / getting started instructions mention that ESP-IDF should be installed before getting esp-adf from git.
So i'm a bit confused - if you're suposed to install esp-idf, why there's an old version ...

ESP32 Korvo v1.1 - resources

Hi, i got Korvo V1.1 borard (the round one) but it appears it's not listed in ESP-ADF hardware list.
So my question is - why? Is it somehow unrelated/unsupported by ESP-ADF, or maybe it's similar to some other board so that it's almost the same?
Looks quite similar to LyraTD MSC in shape, but i'm ...

Re: Using timers and interrupts - AC dimmer application

some hints
1. zero detection - check for noise / oscillations and debounce if necessary. I dont know why but my zero detection circuit generated a lot of oscillations at each zero transition and this led to lots of WTF moments. So just count them - should be equal to 2 x mains frequency.
2. RTOS ...
