Wemos D1 Mini

We’ll develop a digital clock and timer using TM1637 Display and ESP8266. This will be a fun and interactive way of learning how a digital timer can be built using simple components and code. Let’s get started! It isn’t perfect, it is a mere experiment. Introduction To create this setup, we are using the ESP8266 […]

Building a real-time clock (RTC) using an ESP8266 and the NTPClient library is a common and useful project, as it allows you to keep accurate time in your IoT projects. The NTPClient library allows your ESP8266 to synchronize its time with Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers on the internet.     Here’s a step-by-step guide

In this blog post, we will explore and discuss the hardware Timers available for ESP8266 boards. The code utilizes the ESP8266 timers to handle interrupts efficiently and uses a library written by Khoi Hoang. Introduction to ESP8266 Timers The ESP8266 is a popular microcontroller with built-in WiFi capabilities, but it has limited hardware timers available.

The ESP8266 is a powerful and popular microcontroller often used in IoT and DIY projects. However, it has a limited number of GPIO pins, which can be a constraint when you need to interface with multiple input or output devices. In this tutorial, we will explore how to overcome this limitation by connecting a PCF8574

In this blog post, we will explore how to connect a TM1637 display module to an ESP8266 microcontroller and provide a detailed explanation of the code involved. The TM1637 is a popular 4-digit 7-segment LED display module, while the ESP8266 is a Wi-Fi capable microcontroller widely used in IoT projects. By connecting these two components,

The HC-SR501 PIR (Passive Infrared) Sensor and the ESP8266 are crucial components in many DIY and home automation projects, primarily due to their versatility and ease of use. This blog post will walk you through the process of connecting the HC-SR501 PIR sensor to an ESP8266 without using Wi-Fi, along with a clear explanation of
