前幾天到貨的兩片 ESP32-S3 今天下午終於有時間拆開來測試, 此板規格參見賣家商品頁面 :
模組名稱為 ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N16R8, 其中 N16 表示 Nand Flash 容量為 16MB, 而 R8 則表示 PSRAM 記憶體容量是 8MB, PSRAM 是 ESP32-S3 模組內的周邊擴充 SRAM 晶片, 當所執行的程式需要的記憶體超過內建的 512K SRAM 時就會自動透過 Octal SPI 介面調用 PSRAM 來擴充, 但這這需要支援 PSRAM 的韌體才能啟用.
首先來燒錄不使用 PSRAM 的韌體. 請注意此板有兩個 Type C 插槽, 左邊那個是 OTG USB 插槽, 右邊那個才是連接 PC COM 埠用來燒錄韌體傳送檔案的, 不要插錯了 :

板上有兩個按鈕, 上方是 RST 重置鈕用來重開機, 下方的是 BOOT 按鈕用來燒錄韌體用, 但實測發現現在的板子用 esptool 燒錄或某除韌體時都不需要再按下 BOOT 鈕 (可能是新版 esptool 會自動去控制). 另外板上還有一顆全彩 RGB LED (GPIO48).
ESP32-S3 的韌體的下載頁面如下 :
最上面的韌體是不支援 PSRAM 的, 按其中的 .bin 連結下載 :
或直接按下列網址 :
將開發板 COM 埠 USB 連接 PC USB 槽, 從裝置管理員找出連接埠編號, 此處為 COM4, 先檢查 Flash 資訊 :
D:\ESP32>esptool --port COM4 flash_id

可見此開發板確實有 16MB Flash 記憶體 (硬碟).
然後將 Flash 裡面的韌體抹除, 注意, ESP32-S3 的指令與 ESP32 的不同, --chip 參數要改用 esp32s3 或 esp32-s3 :

此韌體是不支援 SPI PSRAM 的, 所以查詢記憶體顯示的是 SRAM 的大小 :
MicroPython v1.23.0 on 2024-06-02; Generic ESP32S3 module with ESP32S3
Type "help()" for more information.
>>> import gc
>>> print(gc.mem_free())
242576
512 KB 的 SRAM 只剩下一半不到. 用 micropython.mem_info() 會顯示動態記憶體配置情形 :
>>> import micropython
>>> micropython.mem_info()
stack: 736 out of 15360
GC: total: 64000, used: 13008, free: 50992, max new split: 188416
No. of 1-blocks: 299, 2-blocks: 39, max blk sz: 32, max free sz: 3175
此開發板若要用在大量計算 (例如 AI/ML 方面) 就需要用到 PSRAM, 因此接下來改燒錄支援 PSRAM 的韌體, 將下載頁面向下捲動到 Support for Octal-SPIRAM 項目下點選 .bin 即可下載支援 PSRAM 的韌體 :
或按下列網址 :
先將上面燒錄的原韌體抹除 :
D:\ESP32>esptool --chip esp32s3 --port COM4 erase_flash
esptool.py v4.6.2

然後燒錄這個有支援 PSRAM 的韌體 :

檢查動態記憶體 :
MicroPython v1.23.0 on 2024-06-02; Generic ESP32S3 module with Octal-SPIRAM with ESP32S3
Type "help()" for more information.
>>> import gc
>>> print(gc.mem_free())
8302160
總共有 8.3 MB, 其中 8MB 為 PSRAM. 用 micropython.mem_info() 顯示較詳細配置 :
>>> import micropython
>>> micropython.mem_info()
stack: 736 out of 15360
GC: total: 64000, used: 23520, free: 40480, max new split: 8257536
No. of 1-blocks: 548, 2-blocks: 57, max blk sz: 32, max free sz: 2518
當然, 此支援 PSRAM 的韌體執行 Line Notify 傳訊息與詢問 OpenAI API 均可正常執行. 總之, 此 ESP32-S3 開發板既然內建 PSRAM, 當然要充分利用, 雖然 PSRAM 效能比不上 SRAM, 但不用也是浪費.
