1. Overview
1.1. Product Introduction
ESP32-DevKitC is a small-sized ESP32-based development board produced by Espressif.
Most of the I/O pins are led out to the pin headers on both sides for easy interfacing.
Developers can connect these pins to peripherals as needed. Standard headers also make
development easy and convenient when using a breadboard.

Description
ESP-WROOM-32
ESP-WROOM-32 module.
EN
Reset button: pressing this button resets the system.
Boot
Download button: holding down the Boot button and pressing the EN button
initiates the firmware download mode. Then users can download firmware
through the serial port.
USB
USB interface. It functions as the power supply for the board and the
communication interface between PC and ESP-WROOM-32.
I/O
Most of the pins on the ESP-WROOM-32 are led out to the pin headers on the
board. Users can program ESP32 to enable multiple functions such as PWM,
ADC, DAC, I2C, I2S, SPI, etc.

2. Compilation and Download
2. Compilation and Download
We are using ESP-IDF as an example to show how to download firmware to the ESP32-
DevKitC.
•The hardware listed below are required:
-1 × ESP32-DevKitC
-1 × PC (with Windows OS as an example in this document)
-1 × USB cable
•The tools listed below are required:
-ESP32 Flash Download Tool:"
http://espressif.com/en/support/download/other-
tools?keys=&field_type_tid%5B%5D=13
-ESP-IDFhttps://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git
2.1. Create Serial Communication
Connect the ESP32-DevKitC to the PC using the USB cable. Check the list of identified
external COM ports in the Windows Device Manager and confirm the COM port number of
the ESP32-DevKitC.
2.2. ESP-IDF Directory Structure
The following figure shows the directory structure of ESP-IDF, including components,
examples, make, tools and docs. The components folder contains the core components
of ESP-IDF; the examples folder contains the program examples of ESP-IDF; the make
folder contains makefiles for ESP-IDF; the tools folder is the toolkit; the docs folder
contains ESP-IDF-relevant documentation.

2. Compilation and Download

2.3. The hello_world Example
The esp-idf/examples/01_hello_world directory contains a sample code that can be run
on the ESP32.
1. Using the command terminal, change the current directory to example/01_hello_world:
cd󰐇examples/01_hello_world/
2. Configure IDF_PATH:
export󰐇IDF_PATH=/home/share/esp-idf-driver/esp-idf
3. Check the IDF_PATH configuration to make sure it is properly set. Failing to set the path
will cause failure to the linking of dependent files later.
echo󰐇$IDF_PATH
4. Compile the program to generate BIN files. These BIN files have to be downloaded to
the ESP32-DevKitC. Please see Sections 2.3.1 and 2.3.2 for detailed instructions.

2. Compilation and Download
2.3.1. Using the ESP32 DOWNLOAD TOOL
Execute the following command in the terminal to make the example project and generate
executable BIN files:
make
Three BIN files need to be downloaded: example/01_hello_world/bootloader/
bootloader.bin, example/01_hello_world/partitions_singleapp.bin and example/
01_hello_world/hello-world.bin. Then, users can flash these BIN files by using the ESP32
DOWNLOAD TOOL. Please follow the steps below:
1. Open the ESP32 DOWNLOAD TOOL.
2. Configure the download tool and click on “START“, as shown below:
!
⚠ Notice:
Most computers will automatically reset the ESP32 into download mode when you start uploading. If this
does not work on your computer, try holding down the Boot button (and possibly pressing and releasing the
EN button) when starting the upload.

3. Open the serial port. Set the Port, Baud rate = 115200, Data bits = 8, and Stop bits = 1.
If the log below is printed, then it shows that the firmware has been downloaded to the
ESP32-DevKitC successfully.
!
2.3.2. Using esptool
Users need to configure the serial port before compiling and downloading BIN files. Serial
port configuration is not required if the Flash Download Tool is used to flash the BIN files on
to the ESP32-DevKitC. However, other important system parameters may be set via
menuconfig. Please complete this step before generating BIN files.
1. Enter make󰐇menuconfig:
make󰐇menuconfig
Then, the following interface is displayed:

4. Click “OK” and exit make󰐇menuconfig.
5. Flash BIN files directly via the command line below:
make󰐇flash
📖 Notes:
•Please configure the serial port according to actual situation.
•Only DIO mode is supported currently. QIO mode would be supported afterwards.
