stopping wifi before going into deep sleep?

if my esp32 is connected to wifi before going into deep sleep, is there any advantage to issuing the commands: esp_wifi_stop(); esp_wifi_deinit(); before going into deep sleep? I'm thinking perhaps that may tell the AP that the wifi will no longer be required and save resources there, until the esp ...

esp32-c6 and WiFi 6

I don't get how wi-fi 6 works with the esp32-c6. I am writing code for an esp32 Wi-Fi 6 Weather Station which will be take readings and then communicating via Wi-Fi to an MQTT server as well as a weather service for a total of about 1 second, and then be asleep for 15 minutes, after which time it wi...

ESP32-C6 how to enable WiFi 6

I am using the ESP-IDF with the (still in development) version 5.1, and an ESP32-C6. One of the features of the ESP32-C6 is WiFi support. How do I enable that in my code? More specifically, I added: ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_wifi_set_protocol(ESP_IF_WIFI_STA , WIFI_PROTOCOL_11AX)); just prior to the ESP_E...

Re: driving a RGB LED (WS2812) on an esp32-s2-saola-1

Thank you, but adding: #define FASTLED_RMT_MAX_CHANNELS 1 #define FASTLED_RMT_BUILTIN_DRIVER 1 #define FASTLED_INTERRUPT_RETRY_COUNT 1 In any combination did not resolve the rebooting problem. Adding #define FASTLED_RMT_BUILTIN_DRIVER 1 did turn the LED red when it was supposed to, but then in furth...

driving a RGB LED (WS2812) on an esp32-s2-saola-1

I have an esp32-s2-saola-1 which has an addressable RGB LED (WS2812), driven by GPIO18 as described here: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32s2/hw-reference/esp32s2/user-guide-saola-1-v1.2.html Problem is I haven't yet found an Arduino compatible library to drive the RGB led ...

input voltage for esp32-s2-saola-1

Can anyone confirm the input voltage range for the esp32-s2-saola-1 board; wondering if it can handle 7.5v in?

Re: Connecting esp32-S2 dev board to DS3231 clock

ESP_Sprite: thank you very much, that was exactly what I needed to know - indeed pins 8 and 9 are the two to use.

Re: Connecting esp32-S2 dev board to DS3231 clock

Thank you but I really don't understand. Are you saying I can use any two GPIO pins? If yes, how do I tell the ESP32-S2 dev board ( ESP32-S2-Saola-1) which GPIO I am using for SDA and SCL? For example, on a ESP32 Dev Kit 1, GPIO21 is SDA and GPIO22 is I2C SCL - so I just use those two pins. But I do...

Re: When will ESP32-S2 add to Arduino?

This video shows how to set up the Arduino IDE for use with an esp32-s2
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6IoSVdKwNM

please note, at 7:35 there is a reference to running get.exe
on my system I had to run this as an administrator for the setup to work correctly
