ESP8266

Jovan Stosic February 24, 2017

The ESP8266 is a low-cost Wi-Fi chip with full TCP/IP stack and MCU (Micro Controller Unit) capability produced by Shanghai-based Chinese manufacturer, Espressif Systems.[1]

The chip first came to the attention of western makers in August 2014 with the ESP-01 module, made by a third-party manufacturer, AI-Thinker. This small module allows microcontrollers to connect to a Wi-Fi network and make simple TCP/IP connections using Hayes-style commands. However, at the time there was almost no English-language documentation on the chip and the commands it accepted.[2] The very low price and the fact that there were very few external components on the module which suggests that it could eventually be very inexpensive in volume, attracted many hackers to explore the module, chip, and the software on it, as well as to translate the Chinese documentation.[3]

The ESP8285 is an ESP8266 with 1 MB of built-in flash, allowing for single-chip devices capable of connecting to Wi-Fi.[4]

The successor to these module(s) is ESP32.

I am using omxplayer to play the live feed, I have noticed that the + and – do not seem to work to alter the levels at all, I woul

Raspberry Pi • View topic – Power for an external HDD

Jovan Stosic February 24, 2017

I have the Raspberry Pi Model B with its original power adapter (1A). If I connect a USB external drive to it, the drive tries to start spinning but it won’t, and the Raspberry Pi does not detect it. If I connect it using a Y USB cable (1 USB for data + power and the second USB only for power), the Raspberry Pi restarts and the drive does not start spinning anyway. If I use the Y USB cable, but connect the data + power to the Raspberry Pi and the second USB (power only) to an external USB adapter (from a
