Microcontroller

ESP32S3

Frequency

240MHz

Flash

4MB

RAM

320KB

Vendor

Adafruit

Configuration

Please use adafruit_qtpy_esp32s3_nopsram ID for board option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File):

[env:adafruit_qtpy_esp32s3_nopsram]
platform = espressif32
board = adafruit_qtpy_esp32s3_nopsram

You can override default Adafruit QT Py ESP32-S3 No PSRAM settings per build environment using board_*** option, where *** is a JSON object path from board manifest adafruit_qtpy_esp32s3_nopsram.json. For example, board_build.mcu, board_build.f_cpu, etc.

[env:adafruit_qtpy_esp32s3_nopsram]
platform = espressif32
board = adafruit_qtpy_esp32s3_nopsram

; change microcontroller
board_build.mcu = esp32s3

; change MCU frequency
board_build.f_cpu = 240000000L
