The ESP32 S3 does not have a built-in DAC, but it has been identified as an ESP32 device and cannot use PWM analog output. Is there any way to solve the problem of using ESP32S3 normally without external or internal DAC

Hi,
I never had an ESP32 in my hands so this is hypothetical but according to https://sensorium.github.io/Mozzi/#supported-boards-output-modes-and-default-pins the ESP32 default outputting mode is PDM on GPIO2. Have you tried that?

Later, I tried to use the ESP32 to connect to an external DAC (PCM5102) to get sound, but it is not the S3. However, strangely enough, even when I don't perform any operations and simply include #include <Mozzi.h>, my ESP32 keeps rebooting. Below is my code.

Rebooting...

[tomcombriat]

Ok, let's try to narrow down a bit the problem:

• Which IDE are you using? Arduino IDE? PlatformIO?
• does the rebooting problem also happens when you are running an unmodified Mozzi script?
• you mentioned making a DAC working on another ESP, does the sketch also reboots if you do the same with the S3?

[tomcombriat]

Additionally, have you tried narrowing down the reboot reason by using for instance the technique described here: https://forum.arduino.cc/t/esp32-esp-wroom-32-and-wdt/1005179/4 ?

[tfry-git]

This is probably the same issue as #261 .

I'm sorry, due to a job transfer, I don't have time to experiment with this issue at the moment. Thank you very much for your reply. I will conduct another test in a while.
