The deep sleep mode of the ESP32 allows for ultra-low power consumption (in the microamp range) by configuring wake sources, making it suitable for IoT devices that require long standby times. Below are the methods for configuring wake sources in the ESP32 deep sleep mode along with code examples: 1. Types of Wake Sources The … Read more
In the Deep Sleep mode of the ESP32, data in ordinary memory is lost because the main CPU and most peripherals are powered off. However, RTC Memory (RTC Slow/Fast Memory) and non-volatile storage (such as Flash/NVS) can be used to preserve data during sleep. Below are detailed methods and considerations for data preservation: 1. Data … Read more
Introduction In embedded development, the persistence of stored data is crucial. The ESP32 offers various storage options, with flash memory being the most commonly used medium. However, flash memory has a limited number of write cycles, and frequent writes can shorten its lifespan. In particular, the EEPROM implementation of the ESP32 stores data in the … Read more

Click the above blue text to follow us μA-level power consumption refers to a system that consumes only microampere-level current during normal operation or idle state. Typically, both static power consumption (sleep or idle mode) and dynamic power consumption (active mode) are strictly controlled. For example, a system may consume only 0.5μA in deep sleep … Read more
