We’ll detail this in the future tutorials of course. And also to assign the pins to any peripheral we’re going to use in case we’re going to use them for special functions other than being inputs/outputs. This implies the need to assert the GPIO pin to be in Input/Output mode if we want it to be just a normal input/output pin. This makes PCB designs a lot easier to re-configure without re-routing any tracks and things like that.Īny GPIO pin can be a PWM CH1, UART TX, RX, or just any other function. It gives the designer the flexibility of changing the GPIO pin connection inside of the microcontroller itself and route it to any signal. This feature is commonly referred to as PPS (peripheral pin select) in Microchip PIC Microcontrollers. Here is how it looks in the datasheet diagram down below. With an option to just Bypass the GPIO Mux and have your signal directly connected to the peripheral, which is useful for High-Speed signal peripherals like UART, SPI, Ethernet, etc.
This is basically a multiplexor (MUX) to enable the user (You, the programmer) of selecting which GPIO pins is routed to which peripheral’s signal internally. The GPIO pins in the ESP32 microcontroller are interconnected via a pretty complex GPIO matrix. A simple voltage divider network (2 resistors) would get the job done, but not for critical high-speed signal communications of course. You need to have any sort of level-shifting to interface with any other 5v logic devices.
You just can’t directly use them with any 5v input source whether it’s an electronic sensor, module, or other microcontrollers (like an Arduino UNO, Microchip PIC, etc). The ESP32 GPIO pins are not 5v tolerant, they are 3.3v for logic HIGH (1). And let’s start with the most important feature that you must be aware of before hooking anything to ESP32 pins, the voltage level. In this section, I’ll give you an introduction to the hardware capabilities for the ESP32 GPIO pins and how they work, and what kind of features that we can be used in the future in our favor.
