1. Background Introduction The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the connection of objects and devices through the internet, enabling them to exchange information, make autonomous decisions, and work collaboratively. IoT technology plays an increasingly important role across various industries, with sensor technology being a core component of IoT. Sensor technology refers to the technique … Read more
Software tracing tools are essential components in every embedded developer’s toolbox, especially when combined with advanced visualization. Most embedded systems exhibit numerous periodic repeating patterns, where the same sequences are continuously repeated. During debugging, you often want to quickly identify anomalies, that is, deviations from normal periodic behavior.However, software tracing itself is merely a form … Read more
A Chip, Two Brains: A Sci-Fi Guide to ESP32 Dual-Core Processing Collaboration Engineers shout in forums: “Clearly, there are two CPUs, but the code only runs on one core!”The harsh truth: 90% of developers only utilize 50% of the ESP32’s computing powerToday, we unlock its full potential—an overclocking symphony of dual-core parallelism. 01 Dissecting the … Read more
The power design and power management of the ESP32 are core aspects of IoT device development, directly affecting system stability, battery life, and thermal design. Below are detailed power supply solutions and power management strategies: 1. ESP32 Power Supply Requirements Voltage Range Recommended Voltage: 3.3V (Absolute maximum range: 2.3V~3.6V) Do not connect directly to 5V; … Read more
In today’s rapidly developing fields of artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, microcontrollers (Single Chip Microcontrollers) still play an indispensable role. Whether in smart homes, industrial automation, or wearable devices, microcontrollers remain the “unsung heroes” of the hardware world. Today, we will discuss the “hardcore strength” of microcontrollers and how they have become the … Read more

1. Connecting ESP32 to the Network Before performing MQTT communication, the ESP32 needs to connect to a WiFi network. Below is the code to connect to WiFi: import network import time def connect_wifi(ssid, password): # Create WiFi client interface wlan = network.WLAN(network.STA_IF) wlan.active(True) # Check if already connected if not wlan.isconnected(): print('Connecting to network…') wlan.connect(ssid, … Read more
