برد توسعه ESP32 با مبدل CH340C دارای بلوتوث و WIFI با رابط USB Type-C

ESP32 30Pin USB-C
The ESP32 is a low-cost, low-power microcontroller with integrated dual-mode Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology that allows control of all types of sensors, modules, and actuators.
it is the successor to the ESP8266 microcontroller.
ESP32 allows you to generate Internet of Things (IoT) projects efficiently and economically, since it internally integrates a large number of peripherals, including: capacitive touch sensors, Hall effect sensor, low-noise amplifiers, SD card interface, Ethernet, high-speed SPI, UART, I2S and I2C. It has a dual-core CPU of up to 240 MHz that can be controlled independently.

To start using this board and programming it from your PC or laptop, you’ll need to install its driver.
For the board with the CH340C chip, you can download the driver compatible with CH340 and CH341 from the manufacturer’s website:
CH340C Drivers Windows, Linux and Mac

Note
Install the driver according to your PC or laptop’s operating system.
If you have previously installed one, do not install the driver.
Once the driver is installed, you can connect the motherboard to your PC. To verify that the driver was installed correctly and that a COM port was assigned to the motherboard, follow these steps:
Open “Device Manager”
Connect the board to the PC
Click on Ports (COM, LPT)
You should recognize the plate as shown in the following image

How to program ESP32 ?
Once the controller is installed you can program it in different programming environments you can choose
Arduino IDE (in C++ language)
Esp-idf (Espressif IoT Development Framework) developed by the chip manufacturer
Simba Embedded Programming Platform (in Python language)
MicroPython
Javascript (Espruino, Duktape, Mongoose JS)
And others…
It is widely used with the Arduino IDE since it has a wide variety of examples, information, and other resources that will help you start using this board.
To use with Arduino IDE you must perform the following steps:
Open Arduino IDE.
If you have not installed it, download it directly from the Arduino page , install the executable version, do not install the portable version.
Copy the following URL: https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json
Go to the Arduino tab called “File”.
Click on “Preferences”.
Go to the Card Additional URLs Manager:
In the box paste the URL. If there is another URL, put a comma at the end, give a space and paste the URL.
Click on Ok.
Go to the Arduino tab called “Tools”
Click on “Plate:” and then on “Card Manager…”
A window will appear, look for the plates “esp32 by Espressif Systems” and install them.
To check the installation of the ESP32 cards in the Arduino IDE and upload codes to the board, do the following:
Go to the Arduino tab called “Tools”
Click on “Plate:”
Select ESP32 Arduino and look for the board “DOIT ESP32 DEVKIT V1”
You can also choose the boards: NodeMCU-32S , Adafruit ESP32 Feather or ESP32 Dev Module
Then connect the board to the PC.
Go back to “Tools” and select the “COM” port that the PC assigned to the board.
To check that everything went well, I recommend you do the “Hello world on ESP32” which consists of ordering a Blink code, which only turns an esp32 led on and off.

Note
If the program does not load directly to the board you will have to put the board in programming mode before uploading the code, to put it in programming mode do the following:
Press the “BOOT” button when the code is being uploaded as the loading process begins, release the button, you will have to carry out this process every time you upload a sketch to the ESP32.
