Efuse

Efuse blocks

ESP32 has 4 eFuse blocks each containing 256 bits (not all bits can be used for user parameters):

  1. EFUSE_BLK0 is used entirely for system purposes
  2. EFUSE_BLK1 is used for Flash Encryption keys. If the Flash Encryption feature is not used, this block can be used for user parameters.
  3. EFUSE_BLK2 is used for the Secure Boot key. If the Secure Boot feature is not used, this block can be used for user parameters.
  4. EFUSE_BLK3 can be partially reserved to store a custom MAC address, or can be used entirely for user parameters. Note that some bits are already used in ESP-IDF.

The content of various blocks could be found at:
