ESP-12E: ESP8266 WIFI Transceiver Module

ESP-12E WIFI Transceiver Module

Introducing ESP-12E WIFI Transceiver Module specifically designed for use with Arduino.

The ideal choice for home automation and IoT needs, this compact WIFI transceiver can serve as a substitute for your NRF24L01. With the ability to communicate directly with your WIFI router through UART MCU’s (Rx, Tx), it provides an efficient solution.

The ESP-12 WIFI Transceiver Module is the most comprehensive module in the ESP family, offering access to the greatest number of pins. You have the option to program it for standalone use with Arduino IDE or with LUA using NodeMCU.

Equipped with an LDR and a WS2812 LED, this board is ready for your projects. Additionally, it features a CH340 micro USB module for easy programming. Its highly integrated chip – complete with an antenna switch balun and power management converter – requires minimal external circuitry.

The ESP8266 system boasts advanced features, including energy-saving VoIP and seamless switching between sleep and wake patterns. Its low-power operation also includes an adaptive radio bias and front-end signal processing capabilities.

The ESP8266-03, being the smallest version of this module, also boasts a built-in ceramic antenna.

The ESP8266 is a wireless module that functions as a remote serial port and WIFI transceiver.

Some notable characteristics of ESP-12E WIFI Transceiver Module include…

• The onboard LDR light sensor is now operational.
• On-board WS2812 LED.
• The micro USB port can be used for both power and programming purposes.
• Supports 802.11 b/g/n connectivity.
• The Wi-Fi Direct, also known as P2P, and soft-AP are all options for connecting wirelessly.
• Unifying the TCP/IP protocol stack
• The integrated components include a TR switch, balun, LNA, power amplifier, and matching network.
• The integrated components of a PLL, regulators, DCXO and power management units work together seamlessly.
• The output power for 802.11b mode is 19.5dBm.

Achieve a power down leakage current of less than 10uA with the use of an integrated low power 32-bit CPU for application processing. This allows for compatibility with SDIO 1.1 / 2.0, SPI, and UART connections as well as features such as STBC, 1×1 MIMO, and 2×1 MIMO. Additionally, benefit from A-MPDU and A-MSDU aggregation and a 0.4ms guard interval to awaken and transmit packets in under 2ms. And when in standby mode (DTIM3), experience a low standby power consumption of less than 1.0mW. This device also offers both Access Point and Station modes for optimal functionality.
