This article explains what a PWM signal is, and how to generate PWM signal using the ledc peripheral on Espressif devices. It covers the LEDC timer and channel configuration, and shows how to convert a PWM signal into a clean DC value using an RC filter, including the tradeoffs between ripple and response speed.

esparagus is an ESP32-family flasher written in Rust — a behavioral port of esptool’s protocol, sync, reset, and stub-loader paths, wrapped in an observability layer built for programs rather than humans: NDJSON events, a machine-readable report file, stable exit codes, and an expect-style serial monitor with built-in crash detection. This article explains why that layer exists, how the flash-test-fix feedback loop works, and the three ways to integrate it — direct CLI, an Agent Skill, and an MCP server.

This article introduces Velxio, an open-source, browser-based embedded simulator that runs real ESP32 firmware on emulated hardware. It explains how the simulator works under the hood, demonstrates LED, Wi-Fi, MQTT, and sensor based projects, and highlights support for multiple boards across the ESP32 family.

In this article, we will explore how to safely perform OTA updates for the bootloader using the recovery bootloader feature.

ESP-GMF v1.0 is the first official release of Espressif’s General Multimedia Framework, a lightweight, unified framework for building audio, video, and AI multimedia applications on Espressif chips. This post introduces the release, walks through what is new for each component area, and lists the full v1.0 component set.

Aliro brings mobile access credentials to Espressif devices and is compatible with Matter. We are excited to announce esp-aliro, an SDK that enables support for the Aliro standardized protocol on Espressif SoCs.
