Establishing a serial connection with the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} target device could be done using USB-to-UART bridge or USB peripheral supported in {IDF_TARGET_NAME}.
|
|
|
|
Some development boards have the USB-to-UART bridge installed. If a board does not have a bridge then an external bridge may be used.

Supported USB Peripheral
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
The {IDF_TARGET_NAME} supports the USB peripheral. In this case, the USB-to-UART bridge is not needed and the device can be flashed directly.

USB-to-UART Bridge on Development Board
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
For boards with an installed USB-to-UART bridge, the connection between the personal computer and the bridge is USB and between the bridge and {IDF_TARGET_NAME} is UART.

External USB-to-UART Bridge
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Sometimes the USB-to-UART bridge is external. This is often used in small development boards or finished products when space and costs are crucial.

Flash using USB
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
For the {IDF_TARGET_NAME}, the USB peripheral is available, allowing you to flash the binaries without the need for an external USB-to-UART bridge.
|
|
|
|
{IDF_TARGET_USB_PIN_DM:default="Not Updated!", esp32c3="GPIO18", esp32s3="GPIO19", esp32s2="GPIO19"}
|
|
{IDF_TARGET_USB_PIN_DP:default="Not Updated!", esp32c3="GPIO19", esp32s3="GPIO20", esp32s2="GPIO20"}
|
|
|
|
The USB on the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} uses the **{IDF_TARGET_USB_PIN_DP}** for **D+** and **{IDF_TARGET_USB_PIN_DM}** for **D-**.
|
|
|
|
.. only:: SOC_USB_SERIAL_JTAG_SUPPORTED
|
|
|
|
.. note:: The {IDF_TARGET_NAME} supports only *USB CDC and JTAG*.
|
|
|
|
If you are flashing for the first time, you need to get the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} into the download mode manually. To do so, press and hold the ``BOOT`` button and then press the ``RESET`` button once. After that release the ``BOOT`` button.
|
|
|
|
.. only:: esp32s2
|
|
|
|
After flashing the binaries, a manual reset is needed.
|
|
|
|
Flash using UART
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
This section provides guidance on how to establish a serial connection between {IDF_TARGET_NAME} and PC using USB-to-UART Bridge, either installed on the development board or external.
|
|
|
|
Connect {IDF_TARGET_NAME} to PC
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Connect the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} board to the PC using the USB cable. If device driver does not install automatically, identify USB-to-UART bridge on your {IDF_TARGET_NAME} board (or external converter dongle), search for drivers in internet and install them.
|
|
|
|
Below is the list of USB to serial converter chips installed on most of the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} boards produced by Espressif together with links to the drivers:
|
|
|
|
* CP210x: `CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP Drivers <https://www.silabs.com/developers/usb-to-uart-bridge-vcp-drivers>`_
|
|
* FTDI: `FTDI Virtual COM Port Drivers <https://ftdichip.com/drivers/vcp-drivers/>`_
|
|
|
|
Please check the board user guide for specific USB-to-UART bridge chip used. The drivers above are primarily for reference. Under normal circumstances, the drivers should be bundled with an operating system and automatically installed upon connecting the board to the PC.
|
|
|
|
For devices downloaded using a USB-to-UART bridge, you can run the following command including the optional argument to define the baud rate.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
idf.py -p PORT [-b BAUD] flash
|
|
|
|
You can change the flasher baud rate by replacing ``BAUD`` with the baud rate you need. The default baud rate is ``460800``.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
If the device does not support the auto download mode, you need to get into the download mode manually. To do so, press and hold the ``BOOT`` button and then press the ``RESET`` button once. After that release the ``BOOT`` button.
|
|
|
|
Check port on Windows
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Check the list of identified COM ports in the Windows Device Manager. Disconnect {IDF_TARGET_NAME} and connect it back, to verify which port disappears from the list and then shows back again.
|
|
|
|

Check port on Linux and macOS
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
To check the device name for the serial port of your {IDF_TARGET_NAME} board (or external converter dongle), run this command two times, first with the board / dongle unplugged, then with plugged in. The port which appears the second time is the one you need:
|
|
|
|
Linux ::
|
|
|
|
ls /dev/tty*
|
|
|
|
macOS ::
|
|
|
|
ls /dev/cu.*
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
macOS users: if you don't see the serial port then check you have the USB/serial drivers installed. See Section `Connect {IDF_TARGET_NAME} to PC`_ for links to drivers. For macOS High Sierra (10.13), you may also have to explicitly allow the drivers to load. Open System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> General and check if there is a message shown here about "System Software from developer ..." where the developer name is Silicon Labs or FTDI.
|
|
|
|
.. _linux-dialout-group:
|
|
|
|
Adding user to ``dialout`` on Linux
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The currently logged user should have read and write access the serial port over USB. On most Linux distributions, this is done by adding the user to ``dialout`` group with the following command::
|
|
|
|
sudo usermod -a -G dialout $USER
|
|
|
|
on Arch Linux this is done by adding the user to ``uucp`` group with the following command::
|
|
|
|
sudo usermod -a -G uucp $USER
|
|
|
|
Make sure you re-login to enable read and write permissions for the serial port.
|
|
|
|
Verify serial connection
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
Now verify that the serial connection is operational. You can do this using a serial terminal program by checking if you get any output on the terminal after resetting {IDF_TARGET_NAME}.
|
|
|
|
Windows and Linux
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
In this example we will use `PuTTY SSH Client <https://www.putty.org/>`_ that is available for both Windows and Linux. You can use other serial programs and set communication parameters like below.
|
|
|
|
Run terminal, set identified serial port, baud rate = 115200, data bits = 8, stop bits = 1, and parity = N. Below are example screen shots of setting the port and such transmission parameters (in short described as 115200-8-1-N) on Windows and Linux. Remember to select exactly the same serial port you have identified in steps above.

|

|
|
|
|
Then open serial port in terminal and check, if you see any log printed out by {IDF_TARGET_NAME}. The log contents will depend on application loaded to {IDF_TARGET_NAME}, see `Example Output`_.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Close the serial terminal after verification that communication is working. If you keep the terminal session open, the serial port will be inaccessible for uploading firmware later.
|
|
|
|
macOS
|
|
^^^^^
|
|
|
|
To spare you the trouble of installing a serial terminal program, macOS offers the **screen** command.
|
|
|
|
- As discussed in `Check port on Linux and macOS`_, run::
|
|
|
|
ls /dev/cu.*
|
|
|
|
- You should see similar output::
|
|
|
|
/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port /dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART /dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART7
|
|
|
|
- The output will vary depending on the type and the number of boards connected to your PC. Then pick the device name of your board and run::
|
|
|
|
screen /dev/cu.device_name 115200
|
|
|
|
Replace ``device_name`` with the name found running ``ls /dev/cu.*``.
|
|
|
|
- What you are looking for is some log displayed by the **screen**. The log contents will depend on application loaded to {IDF_TARGET_NAME}, see `Example Output`_. To exit the **screen** session type Ctrl-A + \\ .
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Do not forget to **exit the screen session** after verifying that the communication is working. If you fail to do it and just close the terminal window, the serial port will be inaccessible for uploading firmware later.
|
|
|
|
Example Output
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
An example log is shown below. Reset the board if you do not see anything.

If you can see readable log output, it means serial connection is working and you are ready to proceed with installation and finally upload of application to {IDF_TARGET_NAME}.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
For some serial port wiring configurations, the serial RTS & DTR pins need to be disabled in the terminal program before the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} will boot and produce serial output. This depends on the hardware itself, most development boards (including all Espressif boards) *do not* have this issue. The issue is present if RTS & DTR are wired directly to the EN & GPIO0 pins. See the `esptool documentation`_ for more details.
|
|
|
|
If you got here from :ref:`get-started-connect` when installing s/w for {IDF_TARGET_NAME} development, then you can continue with :ref:`get-started-configure`.
