ULP-RISC-V ADC Example

This example demonstrates how to use the ULP-RISC-V coprocessor to poll the ADC in deep sleep.

The ULP program periodically measures the input voltage on EXAMPLE_ADC_CHANNEL (by default ADC1 channel 0, GPIO1 on both ESP32-S2 and ESP32-S3). The voltage is compared to an upper threshold. If the voltage is higher than the threshold, the ULP wakes up the system.

By default, the threshold is set to 1.75V, approximately.

In this example, you need to connect a voltage source (e.g. a DC power supply) to the GPIO pin corresponding to the ADC channel specified in ulp/example_config.h (see the macros defined on the top of the header file). Feel free to modify the channel setting.

Hardware Required

• A development board with a SOC which has a RISC-V ULP coprocessor (e.g., ESP32-S2 Saola)
• A USB cable for power supply and programming
