- **disabled** (*Optional*, bool): Don't try to initialize the PSRAM. This is needed if one of the configured components autoloads psram
but the ESP32 module doesn't have PSRAM and you need to use one of the PSRAM control lines for something else. e.g. ethernet. Defaults to ``false``.

{{< anchor "psram_ignore-not-found" >}}

- **ignore_not_found** (*Optional*, bool): When ``true`` (default), the firmware ignores PSRAM initialisation failures and continues to boot. When ``false``, other components can configure larger WiFi buffers for faster data transfer, but **PSRAM must be available or the device will fail to boot.**

## Restrictions

- Not all ESP32 modules have PSRAM available. If you are unsure, consult the datasheet of your module.
