01_ADC_Test​

Demo Description

• The analog voltage connected through the GPIO is converted to digital by the ADC, and then the actual lithium battery voltage is calculated and printed to the terminal.

Hardware Connection

• Connect the board to the computer using a USB cable

Code Analysis

• adc_bsp_init(void): Initializes ADC1, including creating an ADC one-shot trigger unit and configuring Channel 7 of ADC1.
• adc_get_value(float *value,int *data): Reads the value from Channel 7 of ADC1, calculates the corresponding voltage based on the reference voltage and resolution, and stores it at the location pointed to by the passed pointer. Stores 0 if the read fails.
• adc_example(void* parameter): After initializing ADC1, creates an ADC task. This task reads the ADC value every second and calculates the system voltage from the raw ADC reading.

Operation Result

• After the program is compiled and downloaded, you can view the printed ADC values and voltage output by opening the Serial Monitor, as shown in the following image:

05_Loader_esp32wf​

Demo Description

• WiFi demo
  WARNING

  This module only supports the 2.4GHz network band.

Hardware Connection

• Connect the board to the computer using a USB cable

Code Modification

• Open the srvr.h file and change the ssid and password to the actual WiFi username and password being used.

  INFO

  Modify the Wi-Fi username and password at this location to your own router's or mobile hotspot's Wi-Fi credentials. In this program, the ESP32 acts as a client (slave), not an access point; it does not broadcast its own Wi-Fi hotspot.

  
  

• Press Win + R, type CMD, and open the command prompt to obtain the computer's IP address.

  
  
  
  

• Open the srvr.h file and modify the network segment shown in the image to match your network segment.

  WARNING

  The ESP32's IP address (the last octet) must be different from the computer's IP address, but the other three octets must be exactly the same.

  
  

• Then click Upload to compile and download the program to the ESP32 driver board.

• Open the Serial Monitor, set the baud rate to 115200, and you will see the ESP32's IP address printed:

  
  

• On a computer or mobile phone (ensure the device is connected to the same WiFi network as the ESP32), open a browser, enter the ESP32's IP address in the address bar, and open it. The operation interface will appear as shown below:

  
  

• The interface is divided into five areas: Image Operation Area:

  • Select Image file: Click to select an image from the computer or phone
  • Level: mono: Black‑and‑white color‑level image processing algorithm
  • Level: color: Multi‑color color‑level image processing algorithm (effective only for multi‑color screens)
  • Dithering: mono: Black‑and‑white dithering image processing algorithm
  • Dithering: color: Multi‑color dithering image processing algorithm (effective only for multi‑color screens)
  • Update image: Upload the image
  • IP Information Display Area: Shows the IP address of the currently connected module
  • Image Size Setting Area: Here x and y set the starting position for display, relative to the selected image file. For example, if you select an 800x480 image but the connected e‑Paper screen is 2.9 inches, the screen cannot display the whole image. The algorithm automatically crops a portion starting from the top‑left corner. Setting x and y allows you to customize the starting crop position. w and h are the resolution of the current e‑Paper screen. W and h represent the resolution of the current e-Paper screen.
  WARNING

  If you change the x and y values, you need to click the processing algorithm button again to regenerate the image.

  • Model Selection Area: Here you can select the model of the connected e‑Paper screen
  • Image Display Area: Shows the selected image and the processed result
  INFO

  While uploading an image, the progress will be shown at the bottom.

• In area ①, click Select image file to choose an image, or simply drag and drop an image into the Original image area.

• In area ④, select the corresponding e‑Paper screen model, e.g., 13.3E

• In area ①, click an image processing algorithm, e.g., Dithering: color

• In area ①, click Upload image to upload the image and display it on the e‑paper screen.

Please Note: This tutorial uses the ESP32-S3-Zero as a teaching example, and all hardware code is based on its pinout. Before you start, it is recommended that you check the pinout of your development board to ensure the pin configuration is correct.

Setting Up Development Environment​

Install the ESP-IDF Development Environment​

1. Download the installation manager from the ESP-IDF Installation Manager page. This is Espressif's latest cross-platform installer. The following steps demonstrate how to use its offline installation feature.

   Click the Offline Installer tab on the page, then select Windows as the operating system and choose your desired version from the filter bar.

   
   

   After confirming your selection, click the download button. The browser will automatically download two files: the ESP-IDF Offline Package (.zst) and the ESP-IDF Installer (.exe).

   
   

   Please wait for both files to finish downloading.

2. Once the download is complete, double-click to run the ESP-IDF Installer (eim-gui-windows-x64.exe).

   The installer will automatically detect if the offline package exists in the same directory. Click Install from archive.

   
   

   Next, select the installation path. We recommend using the default path. If you need to customize it, ensure the path does not contain Chinese characters or spaces. Click Start installation to proceed.

   
   

3. When you see the following screen, the ESP-IDF installation is successful.

   
   

4. We recommend installing the drivers as well. Click Finish installation, then select Install driver.

   
   

Install Visual Studio Code and the ESP-IDF Extension​

1. Download and install Visual Studio Code.

2. During installation, it is recommended to check Add "Open with Code" action to Windows Explorer file context menu to facilitate opening project folders quickly.

3. In VS Code, click the Extensions icon  in the Activity Bar on the side (or use the shortcut Ctrl + Shift + X) to open the Extensions view.

4. Enter ESP-IDF in the search box, locate the ESP-IDF extension, and click Install.

   
   

5. For ESP-IDF extension versions ≥ 2.0, the extension will automatically detect and recognize the ESP-IDF environment installed in the previous steps, requiring no manual configuration.

Demo​

The ESP-IDF demos are located in the ESP-IDF directory of the demo package.
