Thank you, Robert! The ESP32 is a great chip! It offers everything a maker wants!

my first video on your channel, watched, subscribed, awesome

This is really great. I've been planning on making a video for the esp32 and Arduino line for my channel. Good to know some of these tricks and challenges.

I learn something new with every video you put out. Didn't know about the bug or the work-around in deep sleep mode. I hope its a software bug. Hardware is bad news for those who have already bought a few boards.

Thank you for the video!

What a great video! thank you so much!

Very helpful! thankyou sir!

Thank you, Greg! The power savings we can achieve using the Deep sleep mode are huge! Now the only thing that remains is to be able to program to Ultra Low power co-processor with the Arduino IDE for even better battery life.

we have about 20 temp sensors in green houses - but can only monitor where we have power because deep sleep is so dysfunctional on most ESP8266. Seems like the MFGR would put more attention into deep sleep. It opens up huge options. Thanks for the vid and firebeetle idea.

wonderful video..and interesting to know that power consumption depends from the development board because i was thinking im doing something wrong. Just as a reference i measured esp32-wroom (the cheap Chinese version of esp32) and the deep sleep consumption is ~10mA, and esp32-cam is around ~6.3mA. I guess esp32-cam has no onboard leds so its more power efficient..

I hope you took away lots from this video and you managed to get your ESP32 to get to sleep. Let me know below! PS. WANT TO LEARN CODING? CHECK MY NEW KZread CHANNEL! bit.ly/3tku2n0

When I design low power I use a trick: I power external devices (like small LCD) directly by the GPIO of the microcontroller, so I skip enable transistors/mosfets. Of course current of those should be lower than the ABS max rating for the GPIO Many thanks for the good video, subscribed!

Nice video and I noticed the DFrobot firebeetle you showed has a 32.768kHz xtal which if enabled for the RTC circuitry saves more energy and also keep the timer far more accurate than the default 150kHz RC oscillator. Have you tried enabling the external Crystal and testing?

Are there gonna be a video about ULP? I am interested how we can use it with deepsleep mode. Thanks!

great channel, have you measured the power consumption of the WEMOS D1 Mini boards?, those are ESP8266 ESP-12 modules, please reply :)

Hey, can you recommend a cheaper digital Multimeter to do the same as what you are doing with the Mastech one you use in this vid? Thanks.

Hi put my esp32 into deepsleep and then measured the current going to a dht22 temp sensor. Multimeter reads 3.3v as the voltage going to the sensor, is this correct? I may be confusing amperage and voltage but thought in deepsleep mode the 3.3v output would be reduced too.

Hello I have one question and a request I have a sketch with esp32 that performs weight measurement, the whole system also has an sd card where it records all that and measures the weight and bme280 parameters. in the sketch there is a command deep sleep but when it is activated then the whole system forgets all the measurements and resets the weight to zero and that does not suit me can you rework my sketch and go into deep sleep mode but when I wake up I have available measurements of weight and bme parameters i hope google translates well greetings and thanks in advance

Hello I made the program to turn on and off an LED by Bluetooth in this case I use the same LED that has the ESP32 in pin2, I added a stretch of code for the ESP32 to enter a state of deep sleep. Well, when I send the 'A' the LED will turn on and off and when I send the 'B' it goes into deep sleep, however, I still consume the same as I could send the program to see where the error is.

using the DOIT ESP32, I Remove the AMS1117 and the led, directly powering the with dswy2596 (led removed) DC DC 6v battery. Whit timer and GPIO EX1 interruptions got a power consuption of 72mW :)

@jbrepoyt

4 жыл бұрын

72mW divided by 6V is 12mA, that is not impressive. Theoretically you should be able to achieve 72uW...

Look at Kevin Darrah's trigboard, 1uA standby current!

I think that the only reason it draws 20 mA in deep-sleep is because the red power LED is always on, and LEDs draw 20 mA of current. Desoldering it should do the trick and reduce it to 10 uA.

Remove the LED form the board. That should reduce the deep sleep power consumption alot. The fire beetle board doesn't have an LED.

I have a system of ESP32s as an air data monitoring system. I have a central server which publishes to an MQTT topic, which the ESP32s answer with their readings. Also, one of the sensors needs to be continuously told to refresh every 1 second. Is it reasonable to have it deep sleep, wake up every second, refresh that goofy sensor, check to see if there's a message waiting, then go back to sleep for the remainder of a second? Most of the time the boards aren't doing anything.

Thank you, I love your approach -- when faced with a bug, find a workaround. Your videos make me smile, you do a great job. Also: normally I watch at 2x, had to slow you down to 1.75x. :)

Hi, in a project of mine, I am trying to get my ESP32 to wake up from deep sleep mode and to wake it up I have assigned several GPIOs, the issue is I am trying to connect the bluetooth through a function which I do it by assigning it to a GPIO pin 36 that if HIGH it should go inside and execute the Bluetooth function, but it just simply brushes past it and rather without connecting tries to again go into the deep sleep. What would be the best way for me to utilise the digitalRead HIGH to go into Bluetooth or any other function which then should only execute after they have been completed? Or is it not my fault? I have tried to look at good examples but can't seem to find a solid rock.

Great video. Do you know if the random inability to wake from deep sleep bug has been fixed (as of 10-1-19)?

But what if you want to make a wifi access point and also have deep sleep when no one is connected? How would you check regularly then like every minute if someone wants to connect or how would you do it?

Is there a "deeper" sleep mode where it disables the RTC block and the only way to wake up is via a hard reset?

What can I do if I want it to stay always on? I want it always on, ( I connected it to the wall power source) so I want the WiFi module always operative and ready to work

hola tengo un sp32 con un sensor dht22 que envía datos a ThinkSpeak cada 30 minutos, podría mientras mantenerlo es deep sleep? gracias

Hi Thank you so much for your great info. I have one doubt. I have connected a DHT11 sensor. It has an inbuilt LED. During deep sleep that LED of sensor is not switched off. It seems the power going to sensor is not cutoff. is it possible to do that?

Use a multimeter that can measure milliamps. Usually the black wire stays in the same jack in the meter but the red wire goes to a different jack from the one used to measure voltage. Hook the red side of the meter to the red side of the battery pack. Hook the black side of the meter to the + input on the board. The black from the board goes to the black of the battery pack. The current then flows through the meter to get to the board and the meter displays how much is flowing.

I have a problem my device goes onto deep sleep mode then it runs setup without waking up.

What if I want to communicate to the board via WiFi or BT? Would waking the radios e.g. Every 5 secs for just 100 ms work and if it detects a connection attempt it would postpone the sleep until the inquiring device would disconnect? Could this work and how to implement it?

Enabling the radio module consumes 100x the power as without. The only viable solution is to deepsleep for 10min then wakeup and poll for new messages via wifi or ble.

Does anybody know how to reconnect to a WiFi net after waking up from deep sleep? I'm using an ESP32

Once it wake up, would it connect automatically to the WiFi or I would have to use SmartConfig application once again on my mobile device to enable WiFi?
