ESP8266 pinout

Vcc = 3V3 GNDUTXD = serial TXURXD = serial RXRST = reset

CH_PD = pull up 4.6kOhmGPIO0 = input/outputGPIO2 = input/output


ESP8266 test

Communicate with ESP8266 using Serial converter on our Arduino board

Vcc = 3V3 GND URXD = serial RX = pin0 UTXD = serial TX = pin1

note: pins seem 5V tolerant


ESP8266 test

Communicate with ESP8266 using Serial converter on our Arduino board (RX, TX)

Upload any sketch not using Serial e.g. blinkConnect ESP moduleOpen IDE Serial MonitorBaud rate = 9600Setting = Both NL & CR


ESP8266 testAT commands of standard firmware

AT+RST resetAT+GMR check firmware version

AT+CWMODE=3 set mode to AP+STAAT+CWLAP list wifi networksAT+CWJAP=ssid,password connect to your wifiAT+CIOBAUD? check baud rateAT+CIOBAUD=9600 set new baud rate

ESP8266 and software serialArduino board has 1 hardware Serial on pin0 and pin1but this is also used for uploading and for Serial MonitorSome earlier modules had baud rate 115200 and their firmware did not allow to change it. would only work with hardware Serial, so Serial Monitor over software Serial + USB converter


ESP8266 and software serialBetter solution:use updated firmware to allow 9600 baudthen can use software Serial for ESP8266and hardware Serial for uploading/monitor as always

new modules come set with default 9600 baudno update of firmware necessary

software serial on e.g. pin10 and pin11standard Arduino library


ESP8266 setupESP8266 can act as:

WEB SERVERserve web pages over existing wifi network

ACCESS POINTcreate its own wifi network + web server

WEB CLIENTcommunicate with web servers (e.g. thingspeak.com)over existing wifi network

ESP8266 with Arduino IDE

Customised IDE using esptool to upload/flash Arduino-style sketches https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino Needs Serial-USB converter (UART)



Hardware connections:pull GPIO0 to GND (programming mode)connect URXD to TXconnect URXD to RXpower off/on

in IDE:set Tools / Programmer / esptoolset Tools / Board / generic ESP8266set Tools / Port / xxx/usb0

upload BLINK with pin = 0 = GPIO0release GPIO0 from GNDconnect GPIO0 to LED



use high level libraries:

#include ...WiFiServer server(80);WiFi.begin(ssid, password);WiFiClient client = server.available();...String req = client.readStringUntil('\r');...client.print(s);
