5.3.55 When the ESP32-C3 is powered by a battery, it may fail to start if the supply voltage
gradually decreases, for example, when the battery is fully discharged and then recharged.
In such cases, the solution could only be disconnecting the battery from the ESP32-C3 and
reconnect a fully charged battery, or to connect a voltage regulator diode between the 3.3
V pin and the EN pin to ensure the chip starts properly. What is the root cause of this
situation? Is there an optimal solution? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 165
