As per the title.
I am currently writing esp32-s3 code for a better modchip/rcm loader than what's currently available. The software is now nearly complete with just this last bit to add.
When the chip boots it can have a GPIO pin go to gnd or go high depeneding on the following way to install:
1: GPIO has a 10k resistor fitted and connects to the RCM strap, When the chip starts it puts the GPIO to gnd and after 1 second the GPIO goes into floating mode again so no voltage or gnd.
Alternative
2: GPIO has an N-Channel MOSFET (2N7000, AO3400, etc.) wired like this:
ESP32 RCM_PIN ------------> G (Gate)
|
D (Drain) ----> Switch Strap Point
|
S (Source) ----> GND
When the switch boots the GPIO goes high and RCM strapping pin gets grounded for 1 second, then gets set LOW so the mosfet turns off and the RCM point goes back to normal.
ESP32-3S has lots of pins so I can program both methods into the chip, but I am not an installer, for the installers which method would you prefer?
Basically it will be a 5 wire install as there will be no need to add a payload toggle wire/button as this is all done from a web interface, same for firmware updates or accessing flash to upload new payloads.
