ESP-32 WROOM module: conecting with FTDI

Postby harshcht » Fri Mar 31, 2017 3:04 am

Can we connect the ESP 32 module with a FTDI (USB to serial converter) just the way we connect an esp8266?
If yes can anyone tell me how to do it. It would be a great help. Thanks in advance. :)

Whatever you do, do not use the 3.3V output of the FTDI as a power source for the ESP32. That output is way too underpowered for that, leading to brownouts and weird exceptions on startup.
