Overview

This document provides an overview of the ESP-BSP (Board Support Package) API as implemented by this board.

While the ESP-BSP framework defines a unified API shared across multiple boards, this documentation focuses only on the APIs supported by the current board. Any APIs not applicable to this board’s hardware are excluded or may not be functional.

The goal of this document is to make it easier for developers to understand the available APIs and how to use them consistently across different boards.

General

Pinout

Each BSP defines a set of macros for default pin assignments used by its hardware peripherals. These macros allow users to configure or reference standard interfaces like I2C, SPI, LCD, audio, or SD cards easily.

I2C: BSP_I2C_*
Display: BSP_LCD_*
Audio I2S: BSP_I2S_*
USB: BSP_USB_*
SD Card (MMC): BSP_SD_*
SD Card (SPI): BSP_SD_SPI_*

[!NOTE] Not all boards support all interfaces. You should always check if the related capability macro (e.g., BSP_CAPS_SDCARD) is defined.

I2C

Some devices included in BSPs (e.g., sensors, displays, audio codecs) communicate via the I2C interface. In many cases, I2C is initialized automatically as part of the device setup. However, you can manually initialize or deinitialize the I2C peripheral using the following API:

/* Initialize the default I2C bus used by the BSP */
bsp_i2c_init();

...

/* Deinitialize the I2C bus */
bsp_i2c_deinit();

If you need direct access to the initialized I2C bus (e.g., to communicate with an external peripheral not handled by the BSP), you can retrieve the I2C bus handle:

i2c_master_bus_handle_t i2c = bsp_i2c_get_handle();

[!NOTE] The BSP ensures that I2C initialization is performed only once, even if called multiple times. This helps avoid conflicts when multiple components rely on the same I2C bus.

ADC

Some devices included in BSPs (such as buttons, battery monitoring, etc.) use the ADC peripheral. In most cases, the ADC is automatically initialized as part of the specific device setup. However, you can manually initialize the ADC using the following API:

/* Initialize the ADC peripheral */
bsp_adc_initialize();

If you need direct access to the ADC instance (e.g., for custom measurements), you can retrieve the handle:

adc_oneshot_unit_handle_t adc = bsp_adc_get_handle();

[!NOTE] The BSP ensures the ADC is initialized only once, even if bsp_adc_initialize() is called multiple times.

Features

Some boards support enabling or disabling specific hardware features (such as LCD, SD card, camera, etc.) to reduce power consumption or manage shared resources. The BSP provides a unified API to control these features:

/* Enable the LCD feature */
bsp_feature_enable(BSP_FEATURE_LCD, true);

/* Disable the speaker to reduce power usage */
bsp_feature_enable(BSP_FEATURE_SPEAKER, false);

Supported feature flags (may vary depending on the board):

BSP_FEATURE_LCD - Display module
BSP_FEATURE_TOUCH - Touch controller
BSP_FEATURE_SD - SD card interface
BSP_FEATURE_SPEAKER- Audio speaker
BSP_FEATURE_BATTERY - Battery monitoring
BSP_FEATURE_VIBRATION - Vibration motor

[!NOTE] Not all BSPs support feature toggling, and some features may not be available or controllable via this API. Always check the BSP header or documentation for supported features.

[!TIP] Disabling unused features can help reduce power consumption, especially in battery-powered applications.

Identification

Each BSP defines an identifier macro in the form of BSP_BOARD_*.

:floppy_disk: SD Card and SPIFFS

SPIFFS Initialization / Deinitialization

Each BSP provides a simple API for mounting and unmounting the SPI Flash File System (SPIFFS).

/* Mount SPIFFS to the virtual file system */
bsp_spiffs_mount();

/* ... perform file operations ... */

/* Unmount SPIFFS from the virtual file system */
bsp_spiffs_unmount();

SD Card Initialization / Deinitialization

The BSP offers a flexible API for working with SD cards. In addition to the default mount and unmount functions, you can also use a configuration structure or access preconfigured host and slot structures.

Mount with Default Configuration

/* Mount microSD card to the virtual file system */
bsp_sdcard_mount();

/* ... perform file operations ... */

/* Unmount microSD card */
bsp_sdcard_unmount();

Mount with Custom Configuration

Some BSPs allow selecting between SDMMC and SPI interfaces for the SD card. Use the appropriate API function based on your hardware:

bsp_sdcard_cfg_t cfg = {0};
/* Mount SD card using SDMMC interface */
bsp_sdcard_sdmmc_mount(&cfg);

bsp_sdcard_cfg_t cfg = {0};
/* Mount SD card using SPI interface */
bsp_sdcard_sdspi_mount(&cfg)

[!NOTE] Not all BSPs support both SDMMC and SPI modes. Check the board documentation to see which interfaces are available. If an unsupported interface is used, the API will return ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED error.

After Mounting

Once the SD card or SPIFFS is mounted, you can use standard file I/O functions (fopen, fread, fwrite, fclose, etc.) provided by ESP-IDF’s VFS (Virtual File System).

To print basic SD card information (after mounting), you can use:

sdmmc_card_t *sdcard = bsp_sdcard_get_handle();
sdmmc_card_print_info(stdout, sdcard);

[!TIP] The bsp_sdcard_get_handle() function returns a pointer to the sdmmc_card_t structure, which contains detailed information about the connected SD card.

:musical_note: Audio

Initialization

Before using speaker or microphone features, the audio codec must be initialized.

/* Initialize the speaker codec */
esp_codec_dev_handle_t spk_codec_dev = bsp_audio_codec_speaker_init();

/* Initialize the microphone codec */
esp_codec_dev_handle_t mic_codec_dev = bsp_audio_codec_microphone_init();

After initialization, the esp_codec_dev API can be used to control playback and recording.

[!NOTE] Some BSPs may only support playback (speaker) or only input (microphone). Use the capability macros (BSP_CAPS_AUDIO, BSP_CAPS_AUDIO_SPEAKER, BSP_CAPS_AUDIO_MIC) to check supported features.

Example of audio usage

Speaker

Below is an example of audio playback using the speaker (source data not included):

/* Set volume to 50% */
esp_codec_dev_set_out_vol(spk_codec_dev, 50);

/* Define audio format */
esp_codec_dev_sample_info_t fs = {
    .sample_rate = wav_header.sample_rate,
    .channel = wav_header.num_channels,
    .bits_per_sample = wav_header.bits_per_sample,
};
/* Open speaker stream */
esp_codec_dev_open(spk_codec_dev, &fs);

...
/* Play audio data */
esp_codec_dev_write(spk_codec_dev, wav_bytes, wav_bytes_len);
...

/* Close stream when done */
esp_codec_dev_close(spk_codec_dev);

[!TIP] Audio data must be in raw PCM format. Use a decoder if playing compressed formats (e.g., WAV, MP3).

Microphone

Below is an example of recording audio using the microphone (destination buffer not included):

/* Set input gain (optional) */
esp_codec_dev_set_in_gain(mic_codec_dev, 42.0);

/* Define audio format */
esp_codec_dev_sample_info_t fs = {
    .sample_rate = 16000,
    .channel = 1,
    .bits_per_sample = 16,
};
/* Open microphone stream */
esp_codec_dev_open(mic_codec_dev, &fs);

/* Read recorded data */
esp_codec_dev_read(mic_codec_dev, recording_buffer, BUFFER_SIZE)

...

/* Close stream when done */
esp_codec_dev_close(mic_codec_dev);

ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE This channel has not initialized or already started

Initialization

ESP-BSP provides two ways to initialize the display, touch and LVGL.

Simple method:

/* Initialize display, touch, and LVGL */
lv_display_t display = bsp_display_start();

Configurable method:

bsp_display_cfg_t cfg = {
    .lvgl_port_cfg = ESP_LVGL_PORT_INIT_CONFIG(),   /* See LVGL Port for more info */
    .buffer_size = BSP_LCD_V_RES * BSP_LCD_H_RES,   /* Screen buffer size in pixels */
    .double_buffer = true,                          /* Allocate two buffers if true */
    .flags = {
        .buff_dma = true,                           /* Use DMA-capable LVGL buffer */
        .buff_spiram = false,                       /* Allocate buffer in PSRAM if true */
    }
};
cfg.lvgl_port_cfg.task_stack = 10000;   /* Example: change LVGL task stack size */
/* Initialize display, touch, and LVGL */
lv_display_t display = bsp_display_start_with_config(&cfg);

After initialization, you can use the LVGL API or LVGL Port API.

Initialization without LVGL - NoGLIB BSP

To initialize the LCD without LVGL, use:

esp_lcd_panel_handle_t panel_handle;
esp_lcd_panel_io_handle_t io_handle;
const bsp_display_config_t bsp_disp_cfg = {
    .max_transfer_sz = (BSP_LCD_H_RES * 100) * sizeof(uint16_t),
};
BSP_ERROR_CHECK_RETURN_NULL(bsp_display_new(&bsp_disp_cfg, &panel_handle, &io_handle));

To initialize the LCD touch without LVGL, use:

esp_lcd_touch_handle_t tp;
bsp_touch_new(NULL, &tp);

After initialization, you can use the ESP-LCD API and ESP-LCD Touch API.

Set Brightness

/* Set display brightness to 100% */
bsp_display_backlight_on();

/* Set display brightness to 0% */
bsp_display_backlight_off();

/* Set display brightness to 50% */
bsp_display_brightness_set(50);

[!NOTE] Some boards do not support changing brightness. They return an ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED error.

LVGL API Usage (only when initialized with LVGL)

All LVGL calls must be protected using lock/unlock:

/* Wait until other tasks finish screen operations */
bsp_display_lock(0);
...
lv_obj_t * screen = lv_disp_get_scr_act(disp_handle);
lv_obj_t * obj = lv_label_create(screen);
...
/* Unlock after screen operations are done */
bsp_display_unlock();

Screen rotation (only when initialized with LVGL)

bsp_display_lock(0);
/* Rotate display to 90 */
bsp_display_rotate(display, LV_DISPLAY_ROTATION_90);
bsp_display_unlock();

[!NOTE] Some LCDs do not support hardware rotation and instead use software rotation, which consumes more memory.

Available constants

Constants like screen resolution, pin configuration, and other options are defined in the BSP header files ({bsp_name}.h, display.h, touch.h). Below are some of the most relevant predefined constants:

BSP_LCD_H_RES - Horizontal resolution in pixels
BSP_LCD_V_RES - Vertical resolution in pixels
BSP_LCD_SPI_NUM - SPI bus used by the LCD (if applicable)

:radio_button: Buttons

Most boards include one or more user buttons. The BSP provides a simple API to initialize and use them. Internally, it utilizes the button component for event handling and debouncing.

/* Initialize all available buttons */
button_handle_t btns[BSP_BUTTON_NUM] = {NULL};
bsp_iot_button_create(btns, NULL, BSP_BUTTON_NUM);

/* Register a callback for button press */
for (int i = 0; i < BSP_BUTTON_NUM; i++) {
    iot_button_register_cb(btns[i], BUTTON_PRESS_DOWN, NULL, btn_handler, (void *) i);
}

/* Called on button press */
static void btn_handler(void *button_handle, void *usr_data)
{
    int button_index = (int)usr_data;
    ESP_LOGI(TAG, "Button %d pressed", button_index);
}

Notes:

BSP_BUTTON_NUM defines the number of available buttons on the board
Instead of relying on a numeric index, you can use the bsp_button_t structure defined in the BSP header to reference buttons by name (e.g., BSP_BUTTON_MUTE, BSP_BUTTON_MAIN, BSP_BUTTON_BOOT, etc.)
The callback can be registered for different button events, such as BUTTON_PRESS_DOWN, BUTTON_PRESS_UP, or BUTTON_LONG_PRESS_START, BUTTON_DOUBLE_CLICK, …
Button features (e.g. long-press support, active level) are configured automatically by the BSP.

function bsp_touchpad_calibrate

Calibrate touch threshold.

esp_err_t bsp_touchpad_calibrate (
    bsp_touchpad_button_t tch_pad,
    float tch_threshold
) 

Parameters:

tch_pad Touch pad from bsp_touchpad_button_t enum.
tch_threshold Interrupt threshold ratio. Min.: 0, max.: 1.

Returns:

ESP_OK On success
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG NULL pointer or invalid configuration
function bsp_touchpad_deinit

Deinit buttons on Touchpad board.

esp_err_t bsp_touchpad_deinit (
    void
) 

function `bsp_touchpad_init`

Init buttons on Touchpad board.

esp_err_t bsp_touchpad_init (
    intr_handler_t fn
) 

Attention:

This function initializes all touchpad buttons, including ‘Photo’ and ‘Network’ buttons, which have conflicts with Audio board buttons and LCD respectively.

Parameters:

fn Interrupt callback for touchpad peripheral.

Returns:

ESP_OK On success
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG NULL pointer or invalid configuration
ESP_FAIL Touch pad not initialized
ESP_ERR_NO_MEM No memory

:bulb: LEDs

LEDs are handled similarly to buttons in BSP. The BSP uses the led_indicator component, which provides simple control over LED states and built-in effects such as blinking, breathing, and more. It also supports addressable RGB LEDs.

/* Initialize all LEDs */
bsp_led_indicator_create(leds, NULL, BSP_LED_NUM);

/* Set color of the first LED (for addressable RGB LEDs only) */
led_indicator_set_rgb(leds[0], SET_IRGB(0, 0x00, 0x64, 0x64));

/*
Start a predefined LED effect:
- BSP_LED_ON
- BSP_LED_OFF
- BSP_LED_BLINK_FAST
- BSP_LED_BLINK_SLOW
- BSP_LED_BREATHE_FAST
- BSP_LED_BREATHE_SLOW
*/
led_indicator_start(leds[0], BSP_LED_BREATHE_SLOW);

Notes:

BSP_LED_NUM defines the total number of available LEDs on the board
LEDs are automatically configured by the BSP (no need to set GPIO or direction manually)

:camera: Camera

There is no dedicated BSP API for camera functionality. Instead, the BSP provides default configuration macros:

BSP_CAMERA_DEFAULT_CONFIG
BSP_CAMERA_VFLIP
BSP_CAMERA_HMIRROR

These macros are designed for use with the esp32-camera component.

[!NOTE] Don’t forget to initialize I2C (bsp_i2c_init()) before using the camera, as some camera modules require I2C for configuration.

Example Usage

/* Initialize I2C bus (required by camera module) */
bsp_i2c_init();

/* Initialize the camera using BSP default config */
const camera_config_t camera_config = BSP_CAMERA_DEFAULT_CONFIG;
esp_camera_init(&camera_config);

/* Optional: Set camera orientation */
sensor_t *s = esp_camera_sensor_get();
s->set_vflip(s, BSP_CAMERA_VFLIP);     // Vertical flip
s->set_hmirror(s, BSP_CAMERA_HMIRROR); // Horizontal mirror

...

/* Capture a frame */
camera_fb_t * pic = esp_camera_fb_get();
if (pic) {
    /* Access raw image data in pic->buf with size pic->len */
    process_image(pic->buf, pic->len);  // Replace with your function
    esp_camera_fb_return(pic);
}
