On August the 24th, the Deputy Editor-in-Chief of Make magazine Germany (Peter König) send me a mail. They are in the process of making a special issue about the ESP32-CAM, and they wanted to know if it is okay for me to use my graphical version of the ESP32-CAM, as also seen on my blog […]

The upload procedure for ESP32 boards is a little different from a standard Arduino procedure. Most Arduino’s will automatically reset when a new program is being uploaded, and will automatically enter programming mode. On some ESP boards you have to manually enter programming mode, and on the bare-bones modules, you even have to reset them

When we think about IoT and home automation, we look at modular and compact devices, sensors, microcontrollers, etc. Recently, the ESP32 microcontrollers have gained traction in the electronic world, especially in the IoT field. This device has multiple features such as inbuilt Wi-Fi, Bluetooth modules, and sensors. The ESP32 microcontroller runs on a 3.3V voltage

The Wemos ESP32-S2 is a small Wi-Fi module based on the ESP32-S2FN4R2. The S2 is a new version of the well-known Wemos D1 Mini. The biggest update to the S2 is about twice as many I/O pins in the same form factor. This means that most shields intended for the Wemos D1 Mini can also

While developing the ESP – HomeKit blinds, it became clear that stronger motors are needed. In this blog, we look at a DC motor controller in which the speed and direction of rotation must be able to be controlled. We are also looking at a controller for controlling a small electric motor via a PWM

Since Espressif Systems arrived in our collective consciousness, they have expanded their range from the ESP8266 to the ESP32, and going beyond the original WROOM and WROVER modules to a range of further ESP32 products. There’s a single-core variant and one that packs a RISC-V core in place of the Tensilica one, and now they’ve
In this blog, we will discuss how to use the ESP32 touch sensors and how to use the esp32 touch sensors as a push button without having to connect an external push button. The ESP32 chip offers ten touch sensors. These touch sensors are built-in with ESP32 chip and are capacitive type. These touch sensors

ESPC2-02 Wi-Fi and BLE coexistence Module is a highly integrated single-chip low power 802.11bgn Wireless LAN (WLAN) network controller. It combines a RISC CPU, WLAN MAC, a 1T1R capable WLAN baseband, RF, and Bluetooth in a single chip. It also provides a bunch of configurable GPIO, which are configured as digital peripherals for different applications

In this post, we’ll be taking a closer look at the ESP32-S2 hardware, and more specifically, the ESP32-S2 Mini pinout. The ESP32-S2 is based on the Xtensa® single-core 32-bit LX7 microprocessor, up to 240 MHz. The ESP32-S2 pinout consists of 43 × programmable GPIO’s pins, 2 × 12-bit SAR ADCs, up to 20 channels. The
