Resolució de problemes
- Q: How to connect an extension module?
- A: You must remove the original bottom casing and battery of the Core2 V1.1 to stack another module extension.
- Q: The memory card fails to read.
- A: You can add specific code during initialization to enhance the host's memory card reading capability. For example, in Arduino, you might use:
for (auto gpio: (const uint8_t[]){18, 19, 23}) (*(volatile uint32_t*)GPIO_PIN_MUX_REG[gpio]) |= FUN_DRV_M; gpio_pulldown_dis((gpio_num_t)gpio); gpio_pullup_en((gpio_num_t)gpio);}This code snippet is intended for advanced users familiar with ESP32 GPIO configuration.
