For the strapping pin mapping between the chip and modules, please refer to Chapter 8 Module Schematics. The chip allows for configuring the following boot parameters through strapping pins and eFuse parameters at power-up or a hardware reset, without microcontroller interaction. • Chip boot mode – Strapping pins: GPIO2, GPIO8, and GPIO9 • ROM message printing – Strapping pin: GPIO8 – eFuse parameters: EFUSE_UART_PRINT_CONTROL and EFUSE_USB_PRINT_CHANNEL The default values of all the above eFuse bits are 0, which means that they are not burnt. Given that eFuse is one-time programmable, once an eFuse bit is programmed to 1, it can never be reverted to 0. For how to program eFuse bits, please refer to ESP32-C3 Technical Reference Manual > Chapter eFuse Controller. The default values of the strapping pins, namely the logic levels, are determined by pins’ internal weak pull-up/pull-down resistors at reset if the pins are not connected to any circuit, or connected to an external high-impedance circuit. Table 4-1. Default Configuration of Strapping Pins Strapping Pin Default Configuration Bit Value GPIO2 Floating – GPIO8 Floating – GPIO9 Weak pull-up 1 To change the bit values, the strapping pins should be connected to external pull-down/pull-up resistances. If the ESP32-C3 is used as a device by a host MCU, the strapping pin voltage levels can also be controlled by the host MCU. All strapping pins have latches. At Chip Reset, the latches sample the bit values of their respective strapping pins and store them until the chip is powered down or shut down. The states of latches cannot be changed in any other way. It makes the strapping pin values available during the entire chip operation, and the pins are freed up to be used as regular IO pins after reset. For details on Chip Reset, see ESP32-C3 Technical Reference Manual > Chapter Reset and Clock. The timing of signals connected to the strapping pins should adhere to the setup time and hold time specifications in Table 4-2 and Figure 4-1.

Note: ADC2 of some chip revisions is not operable. For details, please refer to ESP32-C3 Series SoC Errata. For more details, see ESP32-C3 Technical Reference Manual > Chapter On-Chip Sensors and Analog Signal Processing. Pin Assignment The pins for the SAR ADC are multiplexed with GPIO0 ~ GPIO5, JTAG interface, SPI2 interface, and pins for external crystal or oscillator.

The voltage is internally converted via an ADC into a digital value. The temperature sensor has a range of –40 °C to 125 °C. It is designed primarily to sense the temperature changes inside the chip. The temperature value depends on factors like microcontroller clock frequency or I/O load. Generally, the chip’s internal temperature is higher than the operating ambient temperature.

Peripheral Schematics • Soldering the EPAD to the ground of the base board is not a must, however, it can optimize thermal performance. If you choose to solder it, please apply the correct amount of soldering paste. Too much soldering paste may increase the gap between the module and the baseboard. As a result, the adhesion between other pins and the baseboard may be poor. • To ensure that the power supply to the ESP32-C3 chip is stable during power-up, it is advised to add an RC delay circuit at the EN pin. The recommended setting for the RC delay circuit is usually R = 10 kΩ and C = 1 µF. However, specific parameters should be adjusted based on the power-up timing of the module and the power-up and reset sequence timing of the chip. For ESP32-C3’s power-up and reset sequence timing diagram, please refer Section 4.3 Chip Power-up and Reset. • UART0 is used to download firmware and log output. When using the AT firmware, note that the UART GPIO is already configured. It is recommended to use the default configuration. Please refer to ESP-AT User Guide for ESP32-C3 > Section Hardware Connection.

If needed, select a suitable external antenna based on the product’s usage environment and performance requirements. It is recommended to select an antenna that meets the following requirements: • 2.4 GHz band • 50 Ω impedance • The maximum gain does not exceed the gain of the antenna used for certification, which is – Certification except FCC: 2.33 dBi – FCC: 1.57 dBi • The connector matches the specifications shown in Figure 10-3 Dimensions of External Antenna Connector Note: If you use an external antenna of a different type or gain, additional testing, such as EMC, may be required beyond the existing antenna test reports for Espressif modules. Specific requirements depend on the certification type.
