Error setting up W5500 with ESP32S3, any advices?

Projects Programming
1

I've tried to init my W5500, but somehow i just get errors. I have successfully communicated with different devices over the SPI bus, but have commented them out for testing the W5500 alone.

Errors i get after start (including Verbose output)

ETHClass ETH1(1);

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  delay(5000);

  pinMode(ETH_PHY_RST, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(ETH_PHY_CS, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(ETH_PHY_IRQ, INPUT);  // IRQ pin is usually input

  // Ensure all CS pins are HIGH initially (deselected)
  digitalWrite(ETH_PHY_CS, HIGH);

  // Reset W5500
  Serial.println("Resetting W5500...");
  digitalWrite(ETH_PHY_RST, LOW);
  delay(100);  // Hold reset for 100ms (increase if necessary)
  digitalWrite(ETH_PHY_RST, HIGH);
  delay(500); // Wait longer for W5500 to stabilize (increase if necessary)

  // Initialize SPI
  SPI.begin(CLOCK_PIN, MISO_PIN, MOSI_PIN, ETH_PHY_CS);
  SPI.setFrequency(500000); // Lower SPI frequency
  SPI.setDataMode(SPI_MODE0); // Ensure correct SPI mode

  // Initialize Ethernet
  Serial.println("Initializing Ethernet...");
  if (!ETH.begin(ETH_PHY_TYPE, ETH_PHY_ADDR, ETH_PHY_CS, ETH_PHY_IRQ, ETH_PHY_RST, SPI)) {
    Serial.println("Ethernet initialization failed!");
  } else {
    Serial.println("Ethernet initialized successfully.");
  }
}

Does anyone have a solution for this? What could be the cause?

try it without the optional interrupt and reset pin. try automatic PHY_ADDR

#define ETH_PHY_ADDR -1
#define ETH_PHY_CS   21
#define ETH_PHY_IRQ  -1
#define ETH_PHY_RST  -1

don't specify CS pin in SPI.begin. it is handled by the ETH library.
you use the default pins so you don't have to specify MISO, MOSI, CLK
use just SPI.begin()

ETH.begin(); does automatically all the parameters you listed. you don't have to specify them.

alternatively you can try the WebClient example from my EthernetESP32 library. it uses the defaults

Hi Juray,

thanks for your answer!

unfortunately it does not quite work with this lib either, i have set the ss/cs pin directly in EthDriver.h (since i wasn't able to find it in any other file).

GPIO38 needs to be high for giving power to the shield.

the README in EthernetESP32 describes the settings.

with ETH.h try ETH_PHY_ADDR 0

but it looks like it is a hardware problem
