5. Инструкции за работа
- Programming the Board:
- Open your chosen development environment (e.g., ESP-IDF, PlatformIO).
- Select the correct board target (ESP32-P4).
- Write or load your application code.
- To upload code, press and hold the ОБУВКА бутон, след което натиснете RST button, and release both. This puts the board into download mode.
- Initiate the upload process from your development environment.
- Отстраняване на грешки: Utilize the USB Type-C port for serial communication and debugging output. Most IDEs provide a serial monitor feature.
- Peripheral Usage: Refer to the ESP-IDF documentation and specific library examples for programming the MIPI-CSI, MIPI-DSI, USB OTG, and other integrated peripherals.
6. Поддръжка
- Обработка: Handle the board by its edges to avoid touching components, especially when powered. Electrostatic discharge can damage sensitive components.
- Почистване: Ако е необходимо, почистете внимателно дъската с мека, суха четка или сгъстен въздух. Избягвайте използването на течности или абразивни материали.
