| [CH340](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32761423124.html) | CH340 module instead of CP2102, PL2303 or FTDI/FTDT. The CH340 can deliver more current which is needed while the flash process depending on the board type. The timing is also much more stable. **For boards with an USB/TTL adapter onboard this is NOT needed** | ||
| [ESP uploader](https://github.com/srg74/ESP-uploader) | CP2102N module. Same USB to UART converter as many recent Dev boards using. Featuring latest USB-C connector. For use with many ESP32, ESP8266, ESP8255 and Tuya based modules. 3.3V logic and 5V power pass through for custom boards. | ||

| ## OLED Display Setup with FLD_PIN_RST and HELTEC_VEXT_PIN | ||

There was a problem hiding this comment. Choose a reason for hiding this commentThe reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more. instead of starting to "overflow" the hardware list with board specific build instructions, it might be better to move this section into another document (maybe inside "advanced/"). The Four-line-display usermod specific parts would be better suited for the usermod README. |
||
|
|
||
| Some OLED displays, particularly the SSD1306 found in boards like the Heltec WiFi LoRa 32 V3, require specific control pins for optimal operation: | ||
|
|
||
| - **FLD_PIN_RST (Display Reset Pin):** Provides a hardware reset pulse during initialization, ensuring the display initializes correctly. Set via `-D FLD_PIN_RST=<pin_number>` in platformio_override.ini. For Heltec V3: `-D FLD_PIN_RST=21` | ||
|
|
||
| - **HELTEC_VEXT_PIN (Power Control Pin):** Controls a switchable power rail (Vext) that powers external peripherals. This allows the display and other components to be powered down to save energy. Set via `-D HELTEC_VEXT_PIN=<pin_number>`. For Heltec V3: `-D HELTEC_VEXT_PIN=36` | ||
|
|
||
| **Example for Heltec WiFi LoRa 32 V3:** | ||
| ```ini | ||
| build_flags = | ||
| ${env.build_flags} | ||
| -D FLD_PIN_RST=21 | ||
| -D HELTEC_VEXT_PIN=36 | ||
| -D I2C_SDA=17 | ||
| -D I2C_SCL=18 | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Refer to the compatible controllers section for the Heltec WiFi LoRa 32 V3 board details. | ||
