A fatal error occurred: Failed to connect to ESP32-C6: Wrong boot mode detected (0xc)! The chip needs to be in download mode.
For troubleshooting steps visit: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esptool/en/latest/troubleshooting.html

More Information

Using IO Ninja I can correctly read the serial output and even put the ESP32-C6 in download mode by manually trigger the DTR and RTS signals

DTR on, RTS on

Hi @Massimiliano-solutiontech,
is your custom hardware correctly implementing the auto-reset circuitry? It is explained in detail here or in this webinar.

DTR on, RTS on

This shouldn't be possible, the auto-reset circuit should prevent both of these lines from being asserted at the same time according to this truth table (notice the IO0 and EN pins not changing their states if both DTR and RTS are on at the same time):

This leads me to believe maybe you haven't implemented the transistor network like this (changing IO0 to IO9):
image

You can see the esptool reset sequence here, please notice how it's not doing DTR on, RTS on at any time.

I am closing this ticket for inactivity. Also, this doesn't seem like an esptool issue, but a wrong HW design.
Feel free to reopen this if you believe otherwise.
