Use the ESP32S3's onboard USB controller, wire the USB port directly to the ESP32-S3.Use a physical USB-to-serial converter chip/module, connected to the ESP32-S3's serial TX and RX lines.There are multiple ways to connect from a a host (Mac/PC) USB port to an ESP32-S3 for bootloading (download) and serial terminal purposes: I confirm I have checked existing issues, online documentation and Troubleshooting guide.I have checked existing issues, online documentation and the Troubleshooting Guide USB mode and upload mode set to hardware CDC resets as expected.Esptool doesn't detect when the board was put into bootloader using IO0 as it does on s2 (WARNING: ESP32-S2FNR2 chip was placed into download mode using GPIO0).

No esptool commands reset the board, on the s2 it does reset.Tested on s3 devkitc and all UnexpectedMaker s3 boards. On S2 the board resets and runs the sketch after upload with no manual intervention. Here you have to press the reset button manually. Board does not reset and run the sketch as it should, instead staying in download mode.Board correctly resets into download mode using 1200 baud and uploads the sketch.Select USB mode = USB-OTG, USB CDC on boot = enabled, Upload mode = USB OTG CDC.Uploading a sketch over usb otg should reset the chip after upload, but it does not. Native USB port plugged into computer, serial convert USB port not plugged in. Esp32s3 devkitc n8r8 Hardware Configuration
