2 sets of ESP01s DOA ??
Posted: Fri Jan 05, 2018 5:14 pmI have ordered 2 sets of ESP01 modules over the past few weeks and as far as I can see they are DOA. I am confused, because I have 8 working ESP01s that I program from the same fixtures, however the 2nd set have had absolutely no response on the serial monitor. The 2 sets of 4 are from different sellers. 4 are from an amazon seller "TBD CONTROLS" https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MT6T73L/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
4 are from Addicore https://www.addicore.com/ESP8266-ESP-01-p/130.htm.
From the packaging they appear to have been from the same manufacturer. I tried uploading at various speeds and listening on the serial monitor at all available speeds but there is absolutely no output on serial on power on or assertion of the reset pin (GND). There is no response to any AT commands. Nothing received at all on the serial monitor. I use the same fixture on my existing ESP01s and everything works fine. I use an FTDI cable, an external power supply and an 800mA 3.3v regulator, the voltage is steady.
Has anyone had a problem like this I am wondering if they are not getting destroyed during shipping. Physically they look good, just nothing on serial. On the IDE output I get
The leds on the ESP01 never waiver, there is just a steady red led constantly on.
