【ESP32-C3-DevKitM-1】+ Build the software environment for ESP32-C3 development based on the user manual [Copy link]

 

Failed to successfully use Thonny to complete C3 related burning. First use ESP-IDF to configure, compile, and download according to the official guide.

https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/zh_CN/v4.3/esp32c3/get-started/index.html

1. Install ESP-IDF on Windows

https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/zh_CN/v4.3/esp32c3/get-started/windows-setup.html

https://dl.espressif.com/dl/esp-idf-tools-setup-2.4.exe Download and install IDF_TOOLS

Associated with Python, Git and other tools, the Version used is stable esp-idf-v4.3

After IDF is installed, enter idf.py --version to view the current version

2. Copy the project verification from ESP-IDF

I installed it on the E drive E:\ESP32\esp-idf-v4.3\examples\get-started\hello_world

Type cd examples\get-started\hello_world

Type idf.py set-target esp32c3

Type idf.py menuconfig to enter and configure the serial port baud rate, parity check, etc. for downloading programs

3. Enter the framework configuration page to configure the serial flasher config

The default value is 115200. You don’t need to change it. Just press esc. If you change it, save it and then exit.

4. Confirm the serial port number

Connect the ESP32-C3 development board to the PC. In the device manager, confirm the serial port number used by the development board. Here, mine is com13.

(Install different serial port drivers according to the board situation, the following is the driver for the cp210x series)

CP210x_Windows_Drivers.zip (6.84 MB, downloads: 0)

5. Compile the project

Type idf.py build

Waiting for compilation...

After the compilation is completed, the corresponding .bin file is generated

6. Download to the board

Burn the generated binary .bin file to ESP32-C3

Type idf.py -p COM13 flash to start downloading the program to the board

7. Use the serial port to check the operation status

Type idf.py -p COM13 monitor

You can view the program running status

Use ctrl+] to exit the serial port monitoring and return to the cmd interface

8. One-click compilation, burning and monitoring

Enter the corresponding example and type idf.py -p COM13 flash monitor to execute the compile, burn and monitor functions at the same time.

The software environment developed by the OP for ESP32-C3 is still going smoothly.

ESP32 seems to be very powerful for DIY, but the environment is not easy to get started.

I haven't found the firmware library for MicroPython yet. If it can be flashed to MicroPython, it will probably be much more convenient to use.

Yes, I followed the manual once and it went smoothly without any problems.

Well, I saw Mr. Shao’s post the first time.

esp32 still needs to start with the idf.py command. So this post is great for beginners! Like it!
