ESP32-H2 GPIO8
Everything you need to use this pin correctly: status, alternate functions, boot-time cautions and working code.
| Status | Usable |
|---|---|
| Alternate functions | Strapping (boot mode)RTC GPIO |
| Chip | ESP32-H2 pinout |
Watch out:
- Strapping pin: its level is latched at power-up to configure boot behaviour. Do not attach anything that changes its reset state.
Practical notes
Strapping pin that pairs with GPIO9 to select the boot mode; it is also an RTC GPIO able to wake the chip from deep sleep. Floats by default. A good choice for a wake button.
Sample code
// Arduino
const int PIN = 8;
void setup() {
pinMode(PIN, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
digitalWrite(PIN, HIGH);
delay(500);
digitalWrite(PIN, LOW);
delay(500);
}
