I am getting the Arduino console error "the selected serial port serial.serialutil.SerialTimeoutException: Write timeout does not exist or your board is not connected". I recently upgraded to esp8266 version 3.0.2 and cannot upload a simple blink led sketch to my board. Does anyone know how to resolve this? I would like to be able to use the latest core although downgrading to version 2.7.4 allows me to upload sometimes.
Arduino Code:
#define LED_BUILTIN 2
void setup() {
pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT); // Initialize the LED_BUILTIN pin as an output
}
// the loop function runs over and over again forever
void loop() {
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW); // Turn the LED on (Note that LOW is the voltage level
// but actually the LED is on; this is because
// it is acive low on the ESP-01)
delay(1000); // Wait for a second
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH); // Turn the LED off by making the voltage HIGH
delay(2000); // Wait for two seconds (to demonstrate the active low LED)
}
