  // initialize serial communication at 9600 bits per second:
  Serial.begin(9600);
}

// the loop routine runs over and over again forever:
void loop() {
  
  // read the input on analog pin 0:
  int sensorValue = analogRead(A0);
  // print out the value you read:
  
  Serial.println(sensorValue);
  delay(1);        // delay in between reads for stability
}

Code Explanation of ESP32 ArduinoCore Interface ADC

Code Purpose: Reading an analog input from pin A0 and printing the value to the serial monitor.

Setup Routine: This part of the code initializes serial communication at a baud rate of 9600 bits per second.

   // the setup routine runs once when you press reset:
   void setup() {
     // initialize serial communication at 9600 bits per second:
     Serial.begin(9600);
   }

  2. It then prints the value to the serial monitor using Serial.println().
  3. A small delay of 1 millisecond is added between reads for stability using delay().
   // the loop routine runs over and over again forever:
   void loop() {
     // read the input on analog pin 0:
     int sensorValue = analogRead(A0);
     // print out the value you read:
     Serial.println(sensorValue);
     delay(1);        // delay in between reads for stability
   }

Overall Functionality: This code can be useful for testing analog sensors or for basic data-logging applications.

Ex : Create a server Connection

The function net.createServer([type[, timeout]]) is used to create a server with an optional timeout parameter. When you specify a timeout value, it determines the duration for which the server will wait for activity from a client before considering it inactive and closing the connection.

For example, if you create a TCP server with a timeout of 30 seconds using

-- 30s time out for a inactive client
net.createServer(net.TCP, 30) -- 30s timeout

it means that if a client connects to this server but does not send any data within 30 seconds, the server will automatically close the connection to that client.

This timeout functionality is useful for managing server resources efficiently. It allows servers to automatically clean up inactive connections, preventing them from occupying resources indefinitely. In scenarios where maintaining active connections is crucial, such as in real-time communication applications, setting a timeout ensures that resources are available for active clients and that inactive ones do not unnecessarily consume server resources.

Ex : Receive function

function receiver(sck, data)
  print(data)
  sck:close()
end

Ex : Web server function

-- server listens on 80, if data received, print data to console and send "hello world" back to caller
if sv then
  sv:listen(80, function(conn)
    conn:on("receive", receiver)
    conn:send("Arunworld")
  end)

#include "WiFi.h"

void setup()
{
    Serial.begin(115200);

    // Set WiFi to station mode and disconnect from an AP if it was previously connected
    WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
    WiFi.disconnect();
    delay(100);

    Serial.println("Setup done");
}

void loop()
{
    Serial.println("scan start");

    // WiFi.scanNetworks will return the number of networks found
    int n = WiFi.scanNetworks();
    Serial.println("scan done");
    if (n == 0) {
        Serial.println("no networks found");
    } else {
        Serial.print(n);
        Serial.println(" networks found");
        for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
            // Print SSID and RSSI for each network found
            Serial.print(i + 1);
            Serial.print(": ");
            Serial.print(WiFi.SSID(i));
            Serial.print(" (");

            delay(10);
        }
    }
    Serial.println("");

    // Wait a bit before scanning again
    delay(5000);
}

Serial Terminal Output

5 networks found
1: ArunEworld (-34)*
2: Exuber_365 (-59)*
3: Bangalore Police (-66)*
4: Tagos-2.4 (-80)*
5: RRL_Internet (-93)*

Code Explanation

Certainly! Here’s the code with explanations provided as snippets:

#include "WiFi.h"

This line includes the WiFi library necessary for working with WiFi on the ESP32.

void setup()
{
    Serial.begin(115200);

    WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
    WiFi.disconnect();
    delay(100);

    Serial.println("Setup done");
}

In the setup() function:

  • The code initializes serial communication at a baud rate of 115200.
  • The WiFi mode is set to station mode (WIFI_STA) and any previous connection is disconnected using WiFi.disconnect().
  • The code adds a delay of 100 milliseconds.
  • The code prints “Setup done” to the serial monitor.
void loop()
{
    Serial.println("scan start");

    int n = WiFi.scanNetworks();
    Serial.println("scan done");

    if (n == 0) {
        Serial.println("no networks found");
    } else {
        Serial.print(n);
        Serial.println(" networks found");
        for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
            Serial.print(i + 1);
            Serial.print(": ");
            Serial.print(WiFi.SSID(i));
            Serial.print(" (");
            Serial.print(WiFi.RSSI(i));
            Serial.print(")");
            Serial.println((WiFi.encryptionType(i) == WIFI_AUTH_OPEN)?" ":"*");
            delay(10);
        }
    }

    Serial.println("");

    delay(5000);
}

In the loop() function:

  • The code begins by printing “scan start” to the serial monitor.
  • Next, the ESP32 scans for nearby WiFi networks using the WiFi.scanNetworks() function, storing the number of networks found in variable n.
  • After completing the scan, the code prints “scan done” to the serial monitor.
  • The code prints the number of networks found when it detects networks, followed by details of each network, including index, SSID (network name), RSSI (signal strength), and encryption type.
  • If no networks are found (when n == 0), the message “no networks found” is printed.
  • When networks are found, the code prints the number of networks found, followed by details of each network, including index, SSID (network name), RSSI (signal strength), and encryption type.
  • Finally, the code adds a delay of 5 seconds before initiating the next scan.

These snippets provide an overview of how the code initializes WiFi and continuously scans for nearby networks, printing details to the serial monitor.
