Thank you for the reply,

Now it makes sense to me on what is happening under the hood.
So the only method of converting char* to a base address is by mapping?

I'll study the macro's a bit more, the documentation about them was quite sparse.

Hi,

I've been trying to implement the Event Loop Library. Posting and registering events using a hardcoded static string works fine.
When the string is dynamic and identical to the base it fails to trigger.

I'm registering an event using:
esp_event_handler_instance_register("COMMANDBASE1", 0 ...

My board has a ESP32-S3 that I want to reset after uploading. Based on the the documentation a stub loaders is send to supplement the bootloader found in ROM. This stub has the option to run user code (effectively a soft-reset).

My platformio .ini files looks like this:
[env]
platform ...

And If the load was purely resistive load instead? Would sharing the current break a single pin?

40mA is the maximum current sourced by a single pin as specified in the datasheet. I have a relay (FH42L-LCSC) that requires 83.3mA (±10%) for about 15ms.

Can I put 5 output pins in parallel to share the load or would one pin fail/break?

So this would work?

Flashing a binary file with IDF on a new/fresh/empty ESP32-S2 over the internal USB (USB-OTG) peripheral.

I want to design a minimal PCB around the ESP32-S2-MINI with just:

Crystal circuit
Boot/Reset button
USB connector directly on D+ and D-
Voltage regulator


Can I use IDF to download a fresh/new/empty ESP32-S2-MINI with just the internal USB?

OR do I need JTAG/UART for the initial flashing?
