ESP32 internal temperature sensor not working

[nikisalli]

esp32 internal temperature sensor reading 128F (53.33C) continuously with both example codes i found:

https://github.com/pcbreflux/espressif/blob/master/esp32/arduino/sketchbook/ESP32_int_temp_sensor/ESP32_int_temp_sensor.ino

https://gist.github.com/xxlukas42/7e7e18604f61529b8398f7fcc5785251

my setup:
ESP32 Dev module
QIO
4MB flash
Pochi partition scheme
80Mhz flash speed
240Mhz WiFi/BT cpu speed
psram disabled

ide used: arduino ide 1.8.5 on windows 10

i already checked issue #625 and the solution there doesn't work
thanks in advance :)

That function was deprecated long ago, and the temperature sensor is no longer included in the technical manual (since 06/2018). I'd guess the fact that it always returns 128 indicates that it is obsolete.

[nikisalli]

Hi, thank you for the fast answer. How can i read the internal temperature sensor then? Isn't there a register method to read that data directly from the registers?

[lbernstone]

You cannot. That's what obsolete means 😄

For me is working, just using this code:

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif
uint8_t temprature_sens_read();
#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif
uint8_t temprature_sens_read();

---

Serial.print("Temperature: ");

// Convert raw temperature in F to Celsius degrees
Serial.print((temprature_sens_read() - 32) / 1.8);
Serial.println(" C");

On new revision of chip esp32 is no present , on old yes. Check old issues. It's not affidable

[buitre-buitaker]

Do you me hal sensor or library method? What is not present?

[asetyde]

hardware temperature sensor on chip

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.

Using Heltec Wifi Kit 32 and getting the same result as the OP. This is definitely an issue and it should be left open until resolved.

[atanisoft]

@JZ-SmartThings file an issue with esp-idf for it. There is no supported hardware/software backing the API being requested.

[lbernstone]

Should I start an auction for reclaimed v0 chips?

[asetyde]

it can not be resolved if there isn't hw !!! Close this

[nikisalli]

Ok so apparently the new version of the chip doesn't come with an internal temperature sensor anymore so I'm closing this issue.
