Multitasking program with ESP32 and FreeRTOS

Multitasking program with ESP32 and FreeRTOS

, The NodeMCU ESP32 is based on the Xtensa 32-bit LX6 dual-core microprocessor that embeds the FreeRTOS OS. When using the Arduino IDE, the program runs by default on core 1. To multitask, it is interesting to use all the resources of the microprocessor. In this...
Communication between two ESP32 via WiFi

Communication between two ESP32 via WiFi

The NodeMCU ESP32 is a small microcontroller with a Wi-Fi chip. It is possible to establish a communication between two ESP32, when they are connected on the same network. In this tutorial, we will see a Master/Slave architecture, in which one ESP32 will play the role...
Configuring an ESP32 as a Wi-Fi Access Point

Configuring an ESP32 as a Wi-Fi Access Point

The esp32 microcontroller from Espressif is able to be configured as an access point (AP) and generate its own wifi network with ssid and password. This method is useful when you do not have access to a wifi network or if you want to work on a network specific to the...
Generating and uploading BIN files for ESP32

Generating and uploading BIN files for ESP32

When you have a number of microcontrollers to flash with the same program, it can be interesting to flash the compiled BIN file directly. This has two interests. It saves you time on uploading and it allows third parties to upload a program without using the Arduino...
Using an AC dimmer with ESP32

Using an AC dimmer with ESP32

In home automation, it is interesting to be able to manipulate alternating current in order to control different electrical appliances such as lamps or fans. The AC voltage dimmer is a module allowing to vary the power of an alternating current. It has the same use as...
