Squonk’s DYI ESP-01 WiFi Module Breadboard Adapter
Posted: Tue Apr 07, 2015 12:52 pm
ESP-01 modules are dirty cheap these days. You can find them at < $3 in single quantity.
Unfortunately, the most common ESP-01 module is not really breadboard friendly: its dual row connector is such that there is no way you can plug it into a standard breadboard directly.
Of course, makers are not really stopped by this kind of details, and it didn't take long before some among them came with more or less interesting solutions to this problem.
I HAD to propose mine too! So here it is:
As opposed to all adapters I have found so far, mine doesn't require to make a PCB, only standard easy to find parts and tools are required. It doesn’t take long to build and does not require any special skills either…
Easy, quick and cheap HOWTO:
