ESP8266 1S Breakout Adapter
The ESP8266 1S Breakout Adapter is a compact, plug-and-play interface board designed specifically for ESP-01 and ESP-01S WiFi modules. It simplifies the development and testing process for embedded and IoT applications by offering a breadboard-friendly layout, clear pin labeling, and reliable electrical connections. This makes it an essential component for hobbyists, students, and professionals developing wireless systems.
This adapter features a standard 2.54mm pitch, perfectly suited for direct integration into breadboards and perfboards without the need for additional wiring. It routes all the necessary pins of the ESP module, including TX, RX, CH_PD, GPIO0, GPIO2, RST, GND, and VCC, providing seamless connectivity to your Arduino, ESP32, or other microcontrollers such as STM32.
With its compact PCB footprint and soldered headers, the ESP8266 1S Adapter is a reliable tool for quick prototyping, debugging, firmware flashing, and deployment in smart devices and IoT nodes.

Precautions & Usage Tips:
-
Always use a 3.3V regulated power supply when connecting ESP-01 to avoid damaging the module.
-
Avoid hot-plugging the ESP-01 into the adapter while it’s powered, as this can short circuit or damage GPIO lines.
-
Ensure proper orientation of the ESP-01/01S module to avoid reverse connection issues.
-
When flashing firmware, make sure GPIO0 is pulled LOW and the RST pin is used properly.
-
Do not connect the VCC pin to 5V; it must be strictly 3.3V for safe operation.
-
Refer to ESP8266 documentation for hardware-level configurations and safety guides.
