GPIO Pinout

PIN (e-Paper)	ESP32	Description
VCC	VCC	Power input (3.3V)
GND	GND	GND
KEY	12	User button, Low active
SCK	13	CLK pin of SPI, clock input
DIN	14	MOSI pin of SPI, data input
CS	15	Chip select pin of SPI, Low active
BUSY	25	Busy pin, it indicates whether the e-Paper is busy
RST	26	Reset pin, Low active
DC	27	Data/Command control pin, Low for Command and High for Data
ADC	36	ADC data input, the voltage detected is the 1/3 of the battery voltage.

Flashing

Make sure you have a working driver installed for the CP2102 USB to serial convertor chip. I had problems with the stock MacOS Monterey one. After that simply connect to the USB-C port and flash as usual (in case of problems with enter programming mode, connect IO0 to GND, reset the device with reset button (EN) and keep the connection between GPIO0 and GND until programming starts).
