Overview
ESP32 Bit Pirate is open-source firmware that makes an ESP32 a multi-protocol development and analysis tool, inspired by Bus Pirate. It provides an interactive command-line interface over USB serial or Wi-Fi web access for working with connected hardware. Users can sniff, send, script, and interact with digital protocols such as I2C, UART, and SPI, as well as radio technologies including Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Sub-GHz, LoRa, and RFID. The project also provides a web flasher, web tools, hardware guides, recipes, and documentation.
Key features
- Interactive command-line access through USB serial or a Wi-Fi web interface.
- Modes for digital protocols including I2C, UART, SPI, 1-Wire, and CAN.
- Tools to sniff, send, record, and interact with supported digital and radio protocols.
- Project website with a firmware flasher, web tools, hardware guides, recipes, and documentation.
Best for
Useful for hardware makers and developers who want to explore, test, or analyze connected devices and protocols with an ESP32. Choose it when a single tool with a serial or web-based CLI and multiple protocol modes fits the work.
