Hello,
I want to use an ESP8266-07 Module. This module has no USB-Connector. Is it possible to program this module with the arduino-ide? If its possible can someone tell me in what kind of way i can do it?
Thanks
Hans
You will need an FTDI adapter. Google or just search Amazon.
you need:
- any kind of USB-to-UART converter, a.k.a. "USB to TTL" (not only "FTDI")
- two resistors
as "converter" you can using even Arduino Uno, just short reset or careful pull out Atmega328
Search on "program esp8266 with usb to serial converter" or some variation. Most of the hits will be esp-01 related, but the method is the same. You need to connect the serial I/O pins, a couple of GPIO pins, resistors and a few switches.
If you are going to do it a lot there are USB programmer boards, again aimed at the esp-01. You just need to connect the equivalent pins for your module.
have a look at the ESP-01 Helper V3 (ESP8266 module programmer/development board) - although mainly for programming ESP-01 modules can be used with any ESP8266 which does not have an onboard programmer
