ESP8266 Community Forum

Hi, great work. I’m not sure that this is relevant to the ESP8266-12x schematic as I’m not sure which section of you book it features. But as your revising it, is it worth adding a 1k resistor from GPIO16 to RSET for wake from deep sleep (if required)?

This is now my ESP bible! a truly fantastic piece of work. *respect*

A pie chart of usage from the community would be interesting, there are so many different projects and ways of doing things on the go. Many will fade with time but as a novice it's impossible to know what the main stream approach is. For me it's stand alone ESP-01, firmware from http://frightanic.com/nodemcu-custom-build/ , ESPlorer and MQTT.

I think an ESP8266 straight 'out of the box' comes configured as an Access Point? It would be nice to use one and never have to use the serial wires. Some more information on that would be nice. Over The Air flashing etc.

If have not really messed around with deep-sleep myself yet, but according to espressif, you should use 0 ohm resistance (i.e. just a trace, no resistor).
