Module type -> (Xtensa vs RISC-V) #159

Open AlexZettler opened 1 month ago

AlexZettler commented 1 month ago

Understanding if module type->architecture took some time to get sorted. https://docs.esp-rs.org/book/installation/index.html

A table of typical modules (name -> family -> architecture) is a good way to build understanding. The Wikipedia article does a good job of breaking this differentiation down. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESP32

I understand that Espressif is not responsible for the names printed on modules not manufactured by Espressif and this should be clearly indicated.

Hi!

Just to be sure I understand your suggestion, you want something like:

ESP32 -> Xtensa
ESP32-S2-> Xtensa
ESP32-C3 -> RISC-V
...

Rigth?

Yes, that is correct.
