ESP32 / Nominal/max forward current of...
Last post by 981380 - October 03, 2025, 11:32:15 AMIs there a datasheet for the SSR-DIN-10A-480VAC or at least what is the nominal and max forward current for the trigger?
Sorry, couldn't find a more suitable forum topic area.

ESP32 / ESPHome issue with UART
Last post by ju - October 03, 2025, 11:26:32 AMHi folks!
So I've been scratching my head a lot the past day or so, maybe someone here can help me out!
I have a working ESPHome project running on an Olimex ESP32-POE-16MB Rev. L1, I don't need POE for this, nor do I need the Ext connector, so I decided to try to move the project to an Olimex ESP32-Gateway-EA Rev. I
I don't use Ethernet on either board.
Since I changed boards, I cannot get UART to work at all.
I used GPIO13 for TX and GPIO5 for RX on the ESP32-POE without issues.
On the ESP32-Gateway, I've so far tried GPIO16&17, GPIO12&13, GPIO4&13: I don't get any response from UART anywhere.
I've used the same cable for both boards, and now switched back to the ESP32-POE, still the same cable, and everything still works on that board.
Is there something I need to do to make UART work on the ESP32-Gateway?
Thanks a lot!

Last post by chrismacp - September 28, 2025, 09:49:24 PMI'd really like to change the mac address on the ethernet interface as well. Looks like it's not possible unless you follow your burn in instructions above. I was hoping it didn't come to that.
Looks like support for changing the mac through software is only supported for the WIFI interfaces now

Last post by LubOlimex - September 24, 2025, 08:25:58 AMARM-USB-TINY-H works with IAR EW via OpenOCD GDBserver. This product:
https://www.olimex.com/Products/ARM/JTAG/ARM-USB-TINY-H/
First start the GDB server via OpenOCD and then in IAR under Project→Settings→Debugger select GDB Server for the Driver. Then go to Project→Settings→Debugger→GDB Server and set the TCP/IP address field to the IP address of your GDB server. This is typically something like "localhost:3333". It is also explained here:

Last post by bradleyr436 - September 23, 2025, 05:38:53 PMId think the FTDI will do the full rs232; its in a box in storage unassembled so far.
Do you sell a JTAG solution that works with IAR? or if i search on ebay perhaps, what is the needed JTAG? dozens of jtag this and jtag that,

Last post by raybellis - September 23, 2025, 04:02:51 PMGreat to see a breadboard friendly RP2350B board at last! 
Any word on when it'll be available from other distributors? The €80 minimum order charge to the UK is somewhat prohibitive.

Last post by LubOlimex - September 23, 2025, 10:27:05 AMThis won't work as USB-JTAG interface. You can't use it with IAR EW.
The board uses RS232_0 port for ISP programming. Some jumpers have to be configured to program it via ISP, this is explained in the datasheet of the board. In this case you you will probably need USB-RS232 adapter, it should be real RS232 not just data (voltage levels are different). Maybe ask if the FT4232HL adapter works at 5.5V RS232 (I think it only works with 3.3V RS232, but worth asking).
