Can reset pin of ESP32 be taken low on soft restart.

Postby mustaqim » Mon Oct 03, 2022 12:03 pm

Am using esp_restart() to restart the esp32 chip.
This does not take the reset pin low.
Is there any method i can do a software restart of the esp32 and rese t pin also goes low.

Any help is appreciated.
Regards

The reset pin of the ESP32 ("CHIP_PU") is an input-only pin, ESP32 doesn't have any circuits to drive it high or low.

If you need to reset another chip on the board, you'd have to use some spare GPIO and set it low before calling esp_restart.
