Supported Targets ESP32-S2

TinyUSB Sample Descriptor

(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)

This example shows how to set up ESP32-S2 chip to work as a USB Serial Device.

As a USB stack, a TinyUSB component is used.

How to use example

Hardware Required

  • Any board with the ESP32-S2 chip with USB connectors or with exposed USB's D+ and D- (DATA+/DATA-) pins.

If the board has no USB connector, but has the pins connect pins directly to the host (e.g. with DIY cable from any USB connection cable)

ESP32-S2 BOARD          USB CONNECTOR (type A)
                          --
                         | || VCC
    [GPIO 19]  --------> | || D-
    [GPIO 20]  --------> | || D+
                         | || GND
                          --

You can also use power from the USB connector.

Build and Flash

Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:

idf.py -p PORT flash monitor

(Replace PORT with the name of the serial port to use.)

(To exit the serial monitor, type Ctrl-].)

See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.

Serial Connection

After program's start and getting of the message of readiness (Serial device is ready to connect) you can connect to the board using any serial port terminal application (e.g. CoolTerm).

Example Output

After the flashing you should see the output:

I (346) example: USB initialization
I (346) TinyUSB: Driver installation...

Let's try to send a string "espressif" and get the return string in your console on PC:
