README for the Espressif ESP Wrover Kit
|
||
==============================================
|
||
|
||
The ESP32 is a dual-core system from Espressif with two Harvard
|
||
architecture Xtensa LX6 CPUs. All embedded memory, external memory and
|
||
peripherals are located on the data bus and/or the instruction bus of
|
||
these CPUs. With some minor exceptions, the address mapping of two CPUs
|
||
is symmetric, meaning they use the same addresses to access the same
|
||
memory. Multiple peripherals in the system can access embedded memory via
|
||
DMA.
|
||
|
||
ESP-WROVER-KIT is an ESP32-based development board produced by Espressif.
|
||
|
||
ESP-WROVER-KIT features the following integrated components:
|
||
ESP32-WROVER-B module
|
||
LCD screen
|
||
MicroSD card slot
|
||
|
||
Its another distinguishing feature is the embedded FTDI FT2232HL chip,
|
||
an advanced multi-interface USB bridge. This chip enables to use JTAG
|
||
for direct debugging of ESP32 through the USB interface without a separate
|
||
JTAG debugger. ESP-WROVER-KIT makes development convenient, easy, and
|
||
cost-effective.
|
||
|
||
Most of the ESP32 I/O pins are broken out to the board’s pin headers for easy access.

Buttons and LEDs
|
||
================
|
||
|
||
Buttons
|
||
-------
|
||
There are two buttons labeled Boot and EN. The EN button is not available
|
||
to software. It pulls the chip enable line that doubles as a reset line.
|
||
|
||
The BOOT button is connected to IO0. On reset it is used as a strapping
|
||
pin to determine whether the chip boots normally or into the serial
|
||
bootloader. After reset, however, the BOOT button can be used for software
|
||
input.
|
||
|
||
LEDs
|
||
----
|
||
There are several on-board LEDs for that indicate the presence of power
|
||
and USB activity.
|
||
There is an RGB LED available for software.
