FAQPage Schema
How do I manage ESP32 memory allocation across DRAM and IRAM correctly?

ESP32 memory management requires placing executable code in IRAM and dynamic data in DRAM to prevent crashes. This skill provides architectural guidance on partitioning memory correctly for high-performance firmware.

What are the best practices for writing ISR-safe code in FreeRTOS on ESP32?

Writing ISR-safe ESP32 code requires deterministic FreeRTOS task patterns and strict interrupt rules. This skill offers examples of safe task orchestration to ensure robust, interrupt-driven behavior without race conditions.

Does this ESP32 development guide apply to both ESP-IDF and Arduino frameworks?

Yes, this ESP32 development guide applies to both ESP-IDF and Arduino frameworks. It covers framework-agnostic patterns for SPI interactions, GPIO configuration, and power management across both environments.

How do I design a custom ESPHome component for ESP32 hardware?

Designing an ESPHome component for ESP32 involves integrating hardware peripherals using clean SPI interactions and safe configurations. This skill provides scalable patterns for component design and debugging.

Why does my ESP32 crash during SPI transactions and how can I fix it?

ESP32 SPI crashes often result from unsafe interrupt handling or incorrect memory placement during transactions. This skill outlines SPI best practices and ISR rules to resolve these deterministic behavior issues.
