- Sun Nov 08, 2015 10:29 am #33454 Attached photo is a ESP-12E on NodeMCU board. Some findings:
1. The flash chip is "BergMicro" 25Q32ASSIG. I'm not able to find any datasheet about the chip. The chip ID reads as "EF", which is the same as WinBond.
2. The chip runs on DIO mode. Pin 3 and 7 are connected to VCC. This makes GPIO9/10 usable. And user shall only program the chip in DIO mode.

Below is a photo of ESP-12E manufactured in May 2015 for comparison.
