2.3 Power Scheme
Digital pins of ESP32-C3 family are divided into four different power domains:
• VDD3P3_CPU
• VDD_SPI
• VDD3P3_RTC
VDD3P3_CPU is the input power supply for CPU.
VDD_SPI can be an input power supply or an output power supply.
VDD3P3_RTC is the input power supply for RTC analog domain and CPU.
The power scheme diagram is shown in Figure 4.

When working as an output power supply, VDD_SPI can be powered by VDD3P3_CPU via RSP I (nominal 3.3 V).
VDD_SPI can be powered off via software to minimize the current leakage of flash in Deep-sleep mode.

2.4 Strapping Pins
ESP32-C3 family has three strapping pins:
• GPIO8
• GPIO9
• GPIO10
Software can read the values of corresponding bits from the register ”GPIO_STRAPPING”.
During the chip’s system reset, the latches of the strapping pins sample the voltage level as strapping bits of ”0”
or ”1”, and hold these bits until the chip is powered down or shut down.
Types of system reset include:
• power-on-reset
• RTC watchdog reset
• brownout reset
• analog super watchdog reset
• crystal clock glitch detection reset
By default GPIO9 is connected to the chip’s internal pull-up. Consequently, if GPIO9 is unconnected or the
connected external circuit is high-impedance, the internal weak pull-up/pull-down will determine its default input
level.
To change the strapping bit values, you can apply the external pull-down/pull-up resistances, or use the host
MCU’s GPIOs to control the voltage level of these pins when powering on ESP32-C3 family.
After reset, the strapping pins work as normal-function pins.

Functional Description
3.2 System Clocks
3.2.1 CPU Clock
The CPU clock has three possible sources:
• external main crystal clock
• internal 20 MHz oscillator
• PLL clock
The application can select the clock source from the three clocks above. The selected clock source drives the
CPU clock directly, or after division, depending on the application.
3.2.2 RTC Clock
The RTC slow clock is used for RTC counter, RTC watchdog and low-power controller. It has three possible
sources:
• external low-speed (32 kHz) crystal clock
• internal RC oscillator (typically about 150 kHz, and adjustable)
• internal 78.125 kHz clock (derived from the internal 20 MHz oscillator divided by 256)
The RTC fast clock is used for RTC peripherals and sensor controllers. It has two possible sources:
• external main crystal clock divided by 2
• internal 20 MHz oscillator
3.3 Analog Peripherals
3.3.1 AnalogtoDigital Converter (ADC)
ESP32-C3 family integrates two 12-bit SAR ADCs and supports measurements on 6 channels (analog-enabled
pins).
3.3.2 Temperature Sensor
The temperature sensor generates a voltage that varies with temperature. The voltage is internally converted via
an ADC into a digital value.
The temperature sensor has a range of –40 °C to 125 °C. It is designed primarily to sense the temperature
changes inside the chip. The temperature value depends on factors like microcontroller clock frequency or I/O
load. Generally, the chip’s internal temperature is higher than the ambient temperature.
3.4 Digital Peripherals
3.4.1 General Purpose Input / Output Interface (GPIO)
ESP32-C3 family has 22 GPIO pins which can be assigned various functions by configuring corresponding
registers. Besides digital signals, some GPIOs can be also used for analog functions, such as ADC.
All GPIOs have selectable internal pull-up or pull-down, or can be set to high impedance. When these GPIOs are
configured as an input, the input value can be read by software through the register. Input GPIOs can also be set
to generate edge-triggered or level-triggered CPU interrupts. All digital IO pins are bi-directional, non-inverting

two-line full-duplex communication and single-/two-/four-line half-duplex communication in both master
and slave modes. The host’s clock frequency is configurable. Data is transferred in bytes. The clock
polarity (CPOL) and phase (CPHA) are also configurable. The SPI2 interface can connect to GDMA.
– In two-line full-duplex mode, the clock frequency of host and slave is configurable to 80 MHz at most.
Four modes of SPI transfer format are supported.
– In single-/two-/four-line half-duplex mode, the host’s clock frequency is configurable to 80 MHz at
most and the four modes of SPI transfer format are supported.

Functional Description
3.8.3 Watchdog Timers
The ESP32-C3 family contains three watchdog timers: one in each of the two timer groups (called Main System
Watchdog Timers, or MWDT) and one in the RTC module (called the RTC Watchdog Timer, or RWDT).
During the flash boot process, RWDT and the MWDT in timer group 0 (TIMG0) are enabled automatically in order
to detect and recover from booting errors.
Watchdog timers have the following features:
• four stages, each with a programmable timeout value. Each stage can be configured, enabled and
disabled separately
• interrupt, CPU reset, or core reset for MWDT upon expiry of each stage; interrupt, CPU reset, core reset, or
system reset for RWDT upon expiry of each stage
• 32-bit expiry counter
• write protection, to prevent RWDT and MWDT configuration from being altered inadvertently

PUB 197), ECB/CBC/OFB/CFB/CTR (NIST SP 800-38A), SHA1/SHA224/SHA256 (FIPS PUB 180-4), RSA3072,
and ECC. The chip also supports independent arithmetic, such as Big Integer Multiplication and Big Integer
Modular Multiplication. The maximum operation length for RSA and Big Integer Modular Multiplication is 3072
bits. The maximum factor length for Big Integer Multiplication is 1536 bits.
3.10 Physical Security Features
• transparent external flash encryption (AES-XTS algorithm) with software inaccessible key prevents
unauthorized readout of user application code or data.
• secure boot feature uses a hardware root of trust to ensure only signed firmware (with RSA-PSS signature)
can be booted.
• HMAC module can use a software inaccessible MAC key to generate MAC signatures for identity
verification and other purposes.
• Digital Signature module can use a software inaccessible secure key to generate RSA signatures for identity
verification.
• World Controller provides two running environments for software. All hardware and software resources are
sorted to two groups, and placed in either secure or general world. The secure world cannot be accessed
by hardware in the general world, thus establishing a security boundary.
