LO1 OEM struggles to upload data via Pymakr or ampy.
-
Hi all,
I recently created a custom board for my project that contains an OEM LO1 module. I use FTDI FT230R Basic UART to communicate with it. I am able to connect to REPL very reliably, however when I try to upload files I get different errors such as
Failed to write file, trying again...It works maybe once in 5 times, especially if I turn off and on the UART cable.
I tried couple different firmwares, no difference. Once in a while I also receiveGuru Meditation Error: Core 1 panic'ed (IllegalInstruction)error. Could this mean there's something wrong with the ESP32 itself?
Is there anything such as a certain pin not being pulled up that could cause that? I have a LoPy with the expansion board to use as a reference but I can't seem to find anything that is out of place on my board.

Above is the circuitry around the LO1 module, hope that helps.
Many thanks,

In my opinion RESET pin should not be left floating. Try to connect pull-up resistor to 3.3V in 10k-20k range.
Check L01 OEM Baseboard schematic:
