Re: Implementing network support for the RP2040 and an ESP8266

Thanks everyone!

I guess the improving availability of the new Raspberry Pi Pico W is soothing my desire to add WiFi to the original Pico. :D

Implementing network support for the RP2040 and an ESP8266

With the release of the Raspberry Pi Pico W, I have begun to wonder what it would take to do something similar with an ESP8266 chip instead of the CYW43439. Putting the hardware interfacing aside, what kind of changes would be required to MicroPython to make it code-compatible with the Pico W and ot...

MPRemote Editor - Windows IDE for devices that support MPRemote

In the tradition of my previous utility releases AMPYFileManager and Pyboard File Manager I have again re-based the tool on a new access method. This time it is using the MPRemote application. https://github.com/joewez/MPRemoteEditor This time however, the Windows application is optimized to use PuT...

Another Approach

Although I have only seen the idea in passing here in the forums, it strikes me as a solution that might work for a small subset of users... especially beginners. The idea is to have an online service that consists of a simple set of pages used to specify the makeup of a simple MicroPython binary. I...

Re: ESP8266 Booting: Fatal exception (0):

Ah! Sorry, I missed that you had a 1MB device. I'm afraid I don't have a compatible board to test it out.... wait you said ESP-12F... I believe that module has 4MB of SPI flash. All of mine are.

Re: ESP8266 Booting: Fatal exception (0):

Take a look at the 'flash_mode' option available when using the write flash command. For example:

Code: Select all

esptool.py -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -c esp8266 -b 460800 write_flash -fm dio --flash_size=4MB 0x0000 esp8266-20200911-v1.13.bin
you may have to just try each option to find the one that works.

Re: How to compile firmware?

Thank you jomas! I am happy to learn about the patch file method... that is really useful. Much easier to apply without making mistakes! Anyway, I definitely would like to know about this web site. I have been looking for a more simpler type of system for building these BIN files and I had not thoug...

Re: ESP8266 access point server

Even Arduino requires you to include some sort of web server.

Re: ESP8266 access point server

Hello!

You will also need some sort of web server application to serve your page.
