ESP32 USB-C connectivity issues with CP2102N

Context: I designed some PCBs for a device that uses the ESP32-PICO-D4 as a backbone connected with USB-C via the CP2102N. I manually assembled my PCB incrementally as to detect problems immediately as they come. Unfortunately, I did not get very…

COM Port not Detected on Windows for CP2102 on Custom PCB

I am using CP2102N-A02-GQFN24 on my custom PCB to program my ESP32 board. I am not able to see any COM port on my Windows 10 PC. I can connect to an off the shelf CP2102N-A02-GQFN28 USB UART bridge board to my computer. So I think that rules out…

Can DTR be replaced with GPIO0 in this USB to UART auto-program circuit?

These auto-program circuits have been popular for a long time. They replace the need to press boot and reset physically to put the MCU into programming mode. Some USB to UART converters do not have a DTR pin, but do have GPIOs that can be programmed…
