Overview

TTGO T-Beam is an ESP32 development board with 4 MB Flash that uses the EPS32 chip directly. It integrates:

There are at least three board types: rev0, rev1, and V1.0. Versions rev0 and rev1 are very similar, the only difference is that rev1 has an additional LED connected to GPIO14. The pinout of V1.0 has more changes thus it is necessary to add the following line to the makefile of the application to use the according configuration for TTGO T-Beam V1.0:

USEMODULE += esp32_ttgo_t_beam_v1_0

Board Configuration

TTGO T-Beam has the following on-board components:

There are two hardware versions of the board:

Since many GPIOs are broken out, they can be used for different purposes in different applications. For flexibility, some GPIOs might be listed in various peripheral configurations. For example, GPIO0 is used in the ADC channel definition ADC_GPIOS and the PWM channel definition PWM0_GPIOS.

This is possible because GPIOs are only used for a specific peripheral interface when

That is, the purpose for which a GPIO is actually used depends on which module or function is used first.

Note
GPIOs 5, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 26, and 27 are used for board control functions and should not be used for other purposes unless you exactly know what you are doing.

The following table shows the default board configuration, which is sorted according to the defined functionality of GPIOs. This configuration can be overridden by application-specific configurations.

Flashing the Device

Flashing RIOT is quite easy. The board has a Micro-USB connector with reset/boot/flash logic. Just connect the board to your host computer and type using the programming port:

make flash BOARD=esp32-ttgo-t-beam ...

For detailed information about ESP32 as well as configuring and compiling RIOT for ESP32 boards, see RIOT-OS on ESP32 SoC Series Boards.
