Trouble with I2C on ESP32C3
Posted: Tue Jul 28, 2026 11:33 pm
Hi.
I have a Waveshare ESP32-C3-LCD-1.47 development board. It includes a QMI8658 IMU. I know the IMU works because the board shipped with a demonstration program (no source code) that showed as much. But my efforts to access the IMU have failed. It seems the simplest I2C operations result in error 4 "other error". Are there some special requirements for doing I2C on an ESP32C3 board? Is there a tutorial on the subject? Thanks.
