Re: Micropython on ESP32-C3

Hi cederom, 1. Does that USB Serial/JTAG work with MicroPython? 2. Did anyone work with that port to Flash and REPL/CLI with the device? 3. If USB Serial/JTAG port works already, is it enabled by default or I have to rebuild MicroPython on my own to use that USB port not the UART0? 4. If USB Serial/...

Re: Micropython on ESP32-C3

Hi jhaand, ESP32-C3 (RISC-V) has a different memory layout than ESP32-S series (Xtensa), it should be flashed at address 0x0 instead of 0x1000. (I'm guessing 0x10000 in your post is a typo) I still see the following errors coming by after flashing to address 0x10000. I use a NodeMCU with ESP32-C3-32...

Re: Micropython on ESP32-C3

One thing is that it does not mount as USB Storage Device and I cannot really edit `main.py` is there any other way to do that except edit from interpreter on the UART? :-) The easiest way I know is to use the Thonny IDE , it allows you to connect to REPL, transfer files to and from the microcontro...

Re: Micropython on ESP32-C3

What is the current status of MicroPython on ESP32-C3 chip? Is it production ready? :-) The release notes for v1.17 (latest stable to date) says "initial support for ESP32-C3 chips". If we look at the bugtracker , some peoples seem to have problems with I2C and BLE because of a timer issue. So I do...

Re: Micropython on an Ai-Thinker ESP32-C3-32S_Kit (no original) from China with 2MB SPI flash

I don't know if it is cheaper than your clone but still cheap (~5€).
I prefer it because it seems better quality and has more features like power switch, grove connector, D1 mini shields compatibility, functional RTS/DTR circuitry...

Re: Micropython on an Ai-Thinker ESP32-C3-32S_Kit (no original) from China with 2MB SPI flash

My pleasure. Are you good with the soldering iron? Beginners should practice before. Make sure the soldering tip isn't hotter than 370°C. The pads are tiny and the PCB is cheap. I use two soldering irons to remove parts. I am not doing too badly but I admit that I do not play too much with SMD part...

Good job, it should not have been easy to solder 0402 resistors! :o
Thank you for your feedback and for the firmware, I should try to do the same on mine.

Re: Micropython on ESP32-C3

New episode, I dug a bit and found the solution. First good news, the procedure above works like a charm to load MicroPython on ESP32-C3 :) My problem is the board does not have the proper circuitry to manage RTS & DTR when opening the serial port. This circuitry exists on the schematic of the docum...

Re: Micropython on ESP32-C3

Hello, I would like help to deploy a prebuilt MicroPython firmware on an ESP32-C3 board, for now it does not boot. The board I use is an AI Thinker ESP32-C3-32S_Kit with 4MB flash https://docs.ai-thinker.com/_media/esp32/docs/esp-c3-32s-kit-v1.0_specification.pdf I downloaded last esptool (3.1) that...
