Thank you! For my smart home sensor project, I already used KiCad. I loved EAGLE, mainly because I did countless pcbs with it and know exactly how it works, but I already prefer KiCad over Fusion.
Why not use a jumper with 3 headers for the programming/run mode select so it's affirmatively in either mode? Can use +3.3v, IO0, Ground and whichever side the jumper is on will set the pin to either high or low? Looking at the layout it appears that the jumper is only connected to 3.3v so it will always be high if the jumper is set, otherwise it will be floating, or am I reading it completely wrong? Either that, or maybe the 3.3v rail is bridged straight to ground when your jumper is connected right now instead of just IO0.
I actually made a mistake during the filming and had to correct the schematic later. So the layout around this jumper is wrong in some parts of the video. but the schematic at 3:03 is correct. IO0 is connected to 3V3 using a pull up resistor. If you set the jumper it will be connected to GND (then you can flash the esp).
I have learned more from watching 3 of your videos than I have from every other video on this website
I’m glad, thanks for sharing :) If this videos are helpful, you might also like my ESP32 smart home sensor project videos :)
Thankkssssss 💪💪👍👍👍
Great video series, Kicad is now a mature tool you should take it out for a spin ! I love it.
