Dea ESP-32S

[martinayotte]

One of my ESP32 is now dead, unable to boot the Flash, and falling into basic :

Code: Select all

rst:0x7 (TG0WDT_SYS_RESET),boot:0x13 (SPI_FAST_FLASH_BOOT)
flash read err, 1000
Falling back to built-in command interpreter.
OK

OK

I've tested the Flash with esptool.py, and it flashid is read as :

Code: Select all

Manufacturer: ff
Device: ffff

Seeing that wrong Id, I've uncapped the ESP, and replaced the flash, but still the same ...
It seems that SPI port is now broken.

What is voltage on flash vcc pin? Did you change flash clk speed, mode (dio/qio)? Is encryption enabled (check efuse)?

This ESP32S was working since December.
After, I uncapped ESP, I measured the VCC pin, it was strangely at 0.9V, so while connecting new one, I've lifted it to connect it directly to 3.3V instead of the VDD_SDIO, but was still not working ...
Probably the whole VDD_SDIO bus is defective and some other internal peripherals not working.

Fortunately, I've received an EZSBC using ESP-WROOM32 last week, at least I can still play with this toy.

(Hoping that Rev2 will be come into prod soon, I will then purchase some more)
