RDK X5 fails to read two I2C sensors, while the same modules work normally on ESP32-C3

1 reports · 1 sources

A developer reports that RDK X5 V1.0 fails to read both the VEML7700 (address 0x10) and VL53L8CX (address 0x29) sensors over I²C, with address NACK, a timeout of about 1.06 seconds, and Remote I/O error. The same two modules, when connected to an ESP32-C3 and operated at 100kHz, can be read successfully; the VL53L8CX also output 8×8 distance data at about 2Hz. No solution is currently available.
