ESP-02S Wi-Fi Module TYWE2S ESP8285 (ESP-02S Wi-Fi)

TYWE2S (ESP-02S) is a low-cost, small-size WiFi module, the module is packaged with gold fingers, which is convenient for plug-in welding products. The module chip is ESP8285, its built-in memory is 16Mbit, ESP8285 uses built-in flash, which has better antistatic performance than ESP8266.

Technical Specifications

A. Pin definition diagram

B. Module package drawing

C. Application schematic

D. How to program: GPIO0 can be programmed as long as the low level is grounded. After programming, cancel the grounding, otherwise it will not work.

Note

1. The maximum instantaneous current of ESP8285 radio frequency can reach 400~500mA, so the minimum power supply requirement is 500mA. LDOs such as XC6206 and 7533 cannot be used;

2. ESP8285's anti-static ability is slightly weaker. Pay attention to electrostatic protection in the dry season in winter;

3. Based on the 500mA power supply requirement, it is recommended that the wiring between the power supply and the ground is not less than 30mil. If the power line has vias, it is recommended to make 2~3 to prevent PCB production deviation;

4. For better RF performance, please refer to the module placement method in the manual. If the product has certification requirements, it is recommended that there is no parallel wiring near the PCB antenna, and the download interface should be reserved far from the antenna pad;

5. It is recommended to erase the module before downloading the program, otherwise there may be some failure to start;

6. If the module fails to start normally and keeps restarting, it is recommended to check the power supply line, including power supply material parameters, power trace width, vias on the power trace, diodes connected in series to the power supply, etc.

M2.5 x 16mm Female Female Hex Brass Standoff Spacers (FF M2.5x16 Brass)

These are suitable for DIY projects and the Raspberry Pi pcb as the outside diameter is only 2.5mm that fits in the Pi mounting holes.

Brass standoffs are essential components in electronic projects, particularly in applications where circuit boards need to be securely mounted within an enclosure or chassis.

Here's how they are typically used:

  1. Board Mounting: Brass standoffs are used to elevate and secure printed circuit boards (PCBs) within an electronic enclosure or chassis. They provide a stable platform for the PCB, preventing it from coming into contact with conductive surfaces that could cause short circuits.

  2. Mechanical Support: Standoffs act as spacers between the PCB and the mounting surface, ensuring proper ventilation and preventing heat buildup. This is crucial for maintaining the integrity of sensitive electronic components.

  3. Isolation: Brass standoffs help to electrically isolate the PCB from the chassis or enclosure. This isolation is essential for preventing electrical interference, reducing the risk of noise and signal degradation, and enhancing overall circuit performance.

  4. Easy Access: Standoffs facilitate easy access to the PCB for maintenance, repairs, or upgrades. By raising the board above the mounting surface, technicians can easily reach components and make necessary adjustments without disassembling the entire system.

  5. Vibration Dampening: In applications where vibration is a concern, brass standoffs can help dampen vibrations transmitted to the PCB, thereby reducing the risk of component failure or solder joint fatigue over time.

  6. Grounding: Depending on the design, brass standoffs can also be used as grounding points for the PCB. By connecting the standoffs to the ground plane on the PCB, they provide a convenient and reliable grounding solution.

Overall, brass standoffs play a crucial role in ensuring the structural integrity, electrical isolation, and proper functioning of electronic systems. Their versatility and reliability make them indispensable components in a wide range of electronic projects.

GY-MAX4466 Electret Microphone Amplifier Module Adjustable Gain OUT Amplifier Board 2.4-5V DC (GY-MAX4466 amplifier)

Add an ear to your project with this well-designed electret microphone amplifier. This fully assembled and tested board comes with a 20-20KHz electret microphone soldered on. For the amplification, we use the Maxim MAX4466, an op-amp specifically designed for this delicate task! The amplifier has excellent power supply noise rejection, so this amplifier sounds really good and isn't nearly as noisy or scratchy as other mic amp breakouts we've tried!


This breakout is best used for projects such as voice changers, audio recording and audio-reactive projects that use FFT. On the back, we include a small trimmer pot to adjust the gain. You can set the gain from 25x to 125x. That's down to be about 200mVpp (for normal speaking volume about 6" away) which is good for attaching to something that expects 'line level' input without clipping, or up to about 1Vpp, ideal for reading from a microcontroller ADC. The output is rail-to-rail so if the sounds gets loud, the output can go up to 5Vpp!

Using it is simple

Connect GND to ground, VCC to 2.4-5VDC.
For the best performance, use the "quietest" supply available (on an for Arduino, this would be the 3.3V supply). The audio waveform will come out of the OUT pin. The output will have a DC bias of VCC/2 so when its perfectly quiet, the voltage will be a steady VCC/2 volts (it is DC coupled). If the audio equipment you're using requires AC coupled audio, place a 100uF capacitor between the output pin and the input of your device. If you're connecting to an audio amplifier that has differential inputs or includes decoupling capacitors, the 100uF cap is not required. The output pin is not designed to drive speakers or anything but the smallest in-ear headphones- you'll need an audio amplifier (such as 3.7W stereo amp) if you want to connect the amp directly to speakers. If you're connecting to a microcontroller pin, you don't need an amplifier or decoupling capacitor - connect the OUT pin directly to the microcontroller ADC pin. For audio-reactive projects, we suggest using an FFT driver library which can take the audio input and 'translate' it into frequencies.
