FLASH Firmware BOOTLOADER ESP32
FLASH Firmware BOOTLOADER ESP32
Before loading the firmware, we make sure the ESP32 serial usb driver is installed. It
should be noted that the ESP32 sold in the market uses a variety of serial usb ic, but the
average serial usb ic is CP2102 and CH340. Use whichever one doesn't matter, the
important thing is that the serial usb driver on the computer is already installed. We
recommend that you install both drivers, either the CH 340 or the CP2102. For how to
install it, there are many tutorials on google. For CH340 search on google with the keyword
"HOW TO INSTALL THE CH340 DRIVER". As for CP2102 search on google with the
keyword "HOW TO INSTALL THE CP2102 DRIVER"
Plug ESP32 into Computer with micro USB cable. Then we check whether the serial driver has
been successfully installed on our computer. To make sure it's installed or not, do the following:
1. Click Start on windows
2. Click Control Panel
3. Find and select view devices and printers

4. Then make sure there is a USB-SERIAL device then write down the COM number (it has a
COM6
writer, each computer can have a different port number)

fails to install the driver, try restarting your computer. Then try to install again, and check
again like the steps above.
