FireBeetle 2 ESP32-S3(N4) + DFRobot Gravity: Lightning Sensor

userHead pewu 2024-05-28 07:58:29 289 Views3 Replies

Hello,

 

Do you have any experience in connecting FireBeetle 2 ESP32-S3(N4) to DFRobot Gravity: Lightning Sensor? Unfortunately, I try various combinations, but the detector does not respond even to interference. I run the code in the Arduino IDE. The code comes as below. I have tried various combinations of SDA, SCL, IRQ, but the detector does not respond. On the board I use the pins described as SDA and SCL. Despite this, it didn't work. Does the DFRobot_AS3935_I2C.h library not work with the microcontroller?

 

Regards,

Hello,

 

Thank you for Your reply.

 

After connecting according to the sent diagram, the sensor does not react even to interference or noise. The sensor is functional because it works when connected to Arduino. However, I need to connect the sensor to the FireBeelte microcontroller.

 

1. Connecting the DFRobot Gravity Storm Sensor to the FireBeetle 2 ESP32-S3-U

 

 Pin Connections Based on the provided images and source code, below is the pin connection diagram for the storm sensor to the microcontroller:

- Connect the sensor's VCC (PWR) to 3.3V on the FireBeetle board.- Connect the sensor's GND to GND on the FireBeetle board.- Connect the sensor's SCL to the SCL pin (marked as T1 / ADC1_0 on the board diagram).- Connect the sensor's SDA to the SDA pin (marked as T2 / ADC1_1 on the board diagram).- Connect the sensor's IRQ to pin 0 on the FireBeetle board (marked as 0/D9 on the board diagram). Pin Definitions: The IRQ_PIN defined in the code as 0 corresponds to the pin marked as 0/D9 on the microcontroller board.The I2C pins (SCL and SDA) are already identified as T1 and T2 respectively on the board diagram.

If you are using this code, you must connect IO2 of ESP32-S3 to IRQ. Since you did not define esp32, the code will go into else at the beginning of the code macro definition.

 

Also, can you share a screenshot of the serial monitor so that we can check if there is any setting problem.
