#77083 The default I2c in hardware pins are 21 and 22.
I seems that these can't be changed... I looked at the several (named the same Wire.ccp and Wire.h) none have any in the code space versioning identification so I was forced to rely on the external file dating to guess the most recent. All had different coding of Wire.ccp and Wire,h.
Looks like there is no bit banging software for I2C on the Esp32
Anyway thanks to a soldering iron and two short lengths of insulated copper wire these buried coding features can be worked around. The necessary connections are now soldered to the hardware pins 21 and 22.

#77087 I thought the pin mux capabilities of the chip hardware gave a lot of flexibility in connecting the internal peripherals (like the 2 i2c channels) to different GPIO pads.

The Arduino core has 2 calls pinMatrixOutAttach and pinMatrixOutDetach to give access to the matrix and set up the connections.

I haven't tried this myself but would have thought this could be used to get the i2c on pretty much any GPIO.

#77088 Looking further up the food chain

esp32-hal-i2c.c has things like i2cAttachSCL(i2c_t * i2c, int8_t scl) to attach the pin using the base attach calls.

wire.cpp initialises with

void TwoWire::begin(int sdaPin, int sclPin, uint32_t frequency)

which calls i2cAttachSCL(i2c_t * i2c, int8_t scl) and i2cAttachSDA(i2c, sda);

So it looks like you can choose the pins with the Wire initialiser.

#77101 I suspect there are only two choices for I2c with the ESP32. I saw the attach calls but again I suspect they are to just configure either choice one or choice two for the two hardware I2C interfaces.
Any the code below is the example for a ds3231 RTC very slightly modified to correctly get the __DATE__ from compile the original example is off a char in __DATE__.
The code only works with the hardware I2C pins it will freeze or crash if other pins are used.
Code: Select all///////// ds3231 is a 3.3v RTC
