About Coldframe

Hardware

Coldframe runs on a simple but reliable hardware stack built around an ESP32 microcontroller and a BME280 climate sensor. The goal was to keep the wiring minimal, the parts well-supported, and the system robust enough to run outdoors year-round.

SCL is a clock signal — the ESP32 pulses it to set the read rhythm. SDA carries the actual data bits, timed against those pulses.
