I'm training a small ai model for my D1 mini board using Neuton AI platform.
I have to set up the target hardware before actual training process and I'm not sure what type of cpu does D1 mini use.
the options are like this:
I tried searching them one by one but I can only find them adopted by the extension boards of D1 mini, which is not i'm using.
please help me decide what type of cpu to chose or should I buy the extension instead?
| Manufacturer | Espressif Systems |
|---|---|
| Type | 32-bit microcontroller |
| CPU | Tensilica Diamond Standard 106Micro (aka. L106) @ 80 MHz (default) or 160 MHz |
| Memory | 32 KiB instruction, 80 KiB user data |
| Input | 16 GPIO pins |
| Power | 3.3 V DC |
| Successor | ESP32 |
Hi @arthsu5158. As @evanmars already pointed out, the microcontroller on the original WEMOS/LOLIN D1 mini board is the ESP8266, which uses the Tensilica Diamond Standard 106Micro/L106 IP core (the menu you showed seems to be a list of IP core types rather than microcontrollers).
However, it should be noted that there is now a common variant of the board, also sold as "D1 Mini", that has an ESP32 microcontroller instead of the ESP8266. The ESP32 uses the Tensilica Extensa LX6 IP core.
If you aren't sure which of these microcontrollers you have on your board, you can examine the writing on the large metal can on the board. You should be able to identify the microcontroller from that information.
thanks a lot for the reply, and sorry for the lack of researching.
this is my board which I think is just ESP8266 microcontroller.
and I still have no idea which option should I choose.
That is correct.
If the screenshots you shared in post #1 are the full list, then my guess is that the ESP8266 is not supported by the "Neuton AI platform". However, I'm not familiar with this platform, so it is possible I am wrong about that. I suggest studying the platform's documentation and doing some research to check this.
If it is true that the ESP8266 isn't supported, then you can consider some solutions:
None of the above. See ptillisch's post above.
Thank you, I will try other platforms
