Let's turn back the years to 2015, back when you were playing around with the ESP8266, wasn't that great fun! Just dug mine out the other day after playing with the ATTINY85 for awhile, I needed to get back to something that was easy to program! So anyway, I found a different operating system to burn to her that would do something completely different. It was the ESPBasic, really, a full feature basic that runs on the ESP8266! While it will work on the 01 version, it really works best on the units with more RAM such as the 12E, well any 12 or better. I haven't tried it on the ESP32. The neat thing, it even has drivers for OLED and other displays, the possibilities are tremendous for a BASIC lover like myself.
RET = REset Time
Well, as usual, an excellent article, especially on the "2812B RGB LED "strips." I've played with them and now am looking for MORE to, simply, play with even MORE! <grin> Overall they're simple to use. That is off course easy to say since some pretty bright person had to drop down to assy language to do it, always a complex practice.
However I find it MOST difficult to BUY the things, the ones you actually WANT. I've made the mistake of buying "what I thought would work" and that was, in a word, "dumb." I find the most confusing problem is how they LABEL those items. As you said, "Which is it?" referring to a product listed as a "WS2812B WS2812 WS2811 WS2801 RGB 5050 STRIP." I repeat, as you said, "Which is it?" Often though the TITLES are somewhat accurate stating it's a WS2812B and that's IT. But then if you make the mistakes I have read you might find them, again, throwing in "WS2801 WS2811" and not even MENTION "WS2812B." Clearly many of these sellers THEMSELVES don't really know what they've got so the mindset appears to be "Ahhhh, just throw 'em ALL in." Ouch.
So once you've gotten past this mess, yep, these puppies are a blast to play around with both for fun along with actually making something that could be called "useful."
fully functional stoneware is what I got on google translate.
I guess they would be using the MCU on the tester board to automatically test a batch of ESP8266's.
You can program it to send AT commands and then check the output of the ESP8266 on USB or by LED's etc.
How do you keep the mini switches in those breadboards? Regardless how I bend the contacts, the little buggers keep popping back out of the holes!
Wow, these things run the Lua scripting language? Holy…
3 guesses where the magic blue smoke escapes when you grab the 12v instead of the 5v and plug into the power port? Why the CH340 of course! ย Burned mine up in a microsecond. ย The rest of the board seems to work, and the ESP8266 works just fine yet so I think all I need to do is replace that chip and I will be back in business. ย Gotta learn to be more careful with that. ย To many plugs. To many cords….
Hi i have a esp8266 Test Board. How do i switch it to firmware download ?
i guess you turn on MCU tx and rx DIP switches if you wanna talk to the stc mcu
Hello! Love your Postbag Video's – Great Job !!!!
Sorry for keep asking: In some videos you use a pen like blue screwdriver to adjust a variable resistor. Please tell me how it's called cause i desparately want one of these but cannot buy what i dont find and i cannot find who's name i don't know.
Thanks in advance – Mirko
as always you have a great way of presenting information. have just order the test module as it seems a good way of playing with the ESP8266-01.๏ปฟ
