| Supported Targets | ESP32 | ESP32-C2 | ESP32-C3 | ESP32-S2 | ESP32-S3 | | ----------------- | ----- | -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- | # VEML7700 Example Configures an I2C attached VEML7700 ambient light sensor and then reads the values every 1.2 seconds. ## How to use example Follow detailed instructions provided specifically for this example. Select the instructions depending on Espressif chip installed on your development board: - [ESP32 Getting Started Guide](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/stable/get-started/index.html) - [ESP32-S2 Getting Started Guide](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32s2/get-started/index.html) Use `idf.py menuconfig` to adapt the pin configuration to your setup. ## Example folder contents The project **example-veml7700-i2c** contains one source file in C language [main.c](main/main.c). The file is located in folder [main](main). ESP-IDF projects are built using CMake. The project build configuration is contained in `CMakeLists.txt` files that provide set of directives and instructions describing the project's source files and targets (executable, library, or both). Besides, using make is also supported up to esp-idf 4.x and will opt out in 5.x Below is short explanation of remaining files in the project folder. ``` ├── CMakeLists.txt ├── Makefile ├── main │ ├── CMakeLists.txt | ├── components.mk | ├── Kconfig.projbuild This is the project configuration for menuconfig │ └── main.c └── README.md This is the file you are currently reading ``` For more information on structure and contents of ESP-IDF projects, please refer to Section [Build System](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/build-system.html) of the ESP-IDF Programming Guide. ## Troubleshooting * Program upload failure * Hardware connection is not correct: run `idf.py -p PORT monitor`, and reboot your board to see if there are any output logs. * The baud rate for downloading is too high: lower your baud rate in the `menuconfig` menu, and try again.
