ESP-01 ESP8266 WiFi Module

The ESP-01 ESP8266 WiFi Module Serial-to-WiFi adapter created by Espress if has seen a wide adoption as a cost-effective solution for IoT and WiFi-capable devices. This tiny-sized System On a Chip (SoC) includes an 80 MHz microcontroller with a full WiFi front-end (both as client and access point) as well as a full TCP/IP stack with DNS. Because the ESP8266 comes only in a Surface-Mount package, a few different vendors have developed modules labeled ESP-NN where NN are numbers ranging from 01 to 13 (at the time of this writing).

Although most ESP-NN modules are intended to be mounted on a PCB via castellated pins, the ESP-01 includes a set of 0.1in-spaced female pins that can be used to easily connect it to a solderless breadboard! Please note that because the ESP8266 doesn’t have a native USB interface, all ESP-NN modules need an external USB to Serial adapter (e.g., FTDI FT232 USB to Serial UART adapter) to receive data from a computer’s USB connection.

ESP-01 ESP8266 WiFi Module

The ESP8266 ESP-01 is a Wi-Fi module that allows microcontrollers access to a Wi-Fi network. This module is a self-contained SOC (System On a Chip) that doesn’t necessarily need a microcontroller to manipulate inputs and outputs as you would normally do with an Arduino, for example, because the ESP-01 acts as a small computer. Depending on the version of the ESP8266, it is possible to have up to 9 GPIOs (General Purpose Input Output). Thus, we can give a microcontroller internet access like the Wi-Fi shield does to the Arduino, or we can simply program the ESP8266 to not only have access to a Wi-Fi network, but to act as a microcontroller as well. This makes the ESP8266 very versatile, and it can save you some money and space in your projects.
