ESP32, ESP-Now, Stepper problems?

Other Hardware 3rd Party Boards

Hi!

The ESP-Now WIFI is making my stepper motor jitter and loosing rev(without ESP-Now 200rpm, with ESP-Now 150rpm and jitter)

Stepper pulse signal is Pin Low/High with micros(). So 200rpm is 375 micros().

What are the alternatives running my stepper without interfering its pulse signal? Running ESP-Now on different core, or on Bluetooth?

Thanks

Post a wiring diagram. Use a better power supply. Post an image of the project. Use a better power supply. Post your code. Use a better power supply.

And don't forget to use a better power supply.

Power supply 5V 60w 12A, turned to 5.7V. Connected to ESP32 GND and 5V. It has cp2102 chip so I cant go much higher, info in comments https://techexplorations.com/guides/esp32/begin/power/

Ok, tried Accelstepper library... no problems. So problem is using micros() in high speeds. Maybe using timers will also help.
