Download Guidelines
You can download firmware to ESP32-C2 via UART.
To download via UART:
Before the download, make sure to set the chip or module to Joint Download Boot mode, according to Table Boot Mode Control.
Power up the chip or module and check the log via the UART0 serial port. If the log shows “waiting for download”, the chip or module has entered Joint Download Boot mode.
Download your firmware into flash via UART using the Flash Download Tool.
After the firmware has been downloaded, pull GPIO9 high or leave it floating to make sure that the chip or module enters SPI Boot mode.
Power up the chip or module again. The chip will read and execute the new firmware during initialization.
Note
It is advised to download the firmware only after the “waiting for download” log shows via serial ports.
Serial tools cannot be used simultaneously with the Flash Download Tool on one com port.
