Description

This ESP03 demo board combines a USB/serial converter, a Wi-Fi module and a power supply section. The USB connection both powers the demo board and loads into the module flash memory the program it has to run.

The ESP03 has a radio section and a built-in programmable microcontroller, which makes it easy to build Wi-Fi applications with very few parts.
To make programming easier, this module has been made compatible with the Arduino IDE and can therefore be programmed from it.

The ESP03 module is included in the package.

Programming the demo board
The demo board can be programmed in three ways.

The first option is the NodeMCU project, whose reference site (in Chinese, with an English option) is http://nodemcu.com/index_cn.html.
The project sources and all the related files are available at: https://github.com/nodemcu/ nodemcu-firmware e https://github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-flasher.

The second option is the application called ESPlorer, which can be downloaded from https://github.com/4refr0nt/ESPlorer/.

The third option uses the Arduino IDE, which can be downloaded from https://www.arduino.cc. Adding the ESP8266 board from the Board Manager makes it possible to program our demo board straight from the IDE.
