Connect PIR motion sensor to ESP32-S3 AI CAM(SKU:DFR1154)

Hi everyone,

 

I'm trying to connect a PIR motion sensor to the ESP32-S3 AI CAM. I attempted to connect it to GPIO44, but it continuously reads a 1100 pattern, regardless of actual motion. I suspect this is because GPIO44 is natively the RX pin of a UART port.

Has anyone successfully connected accessories like PIR sensors to this board? Any tips or workarounds would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance!
