Sometimes the float valve of a water tank may not work properly causing water to overflow and spread across the floor. Peter Jennings faced this problem in his storage area, and he had developed an alarm device to notify him when the water exceeds its normal range. Peter’s project includes a simple water sensor and […]

ESPUSB – An USB Software Stack For ESP8266


https://www.electronics-lab.com/espusb-usb-software-stack-esp8266/

ESP8266EX and even the new ESP32 SoC lack a USB hardware transceiver, so [CNLohr] decided to develop a USB software stack for ESP8266. After a quick search, I think it is the first try to do a USB software stack for esp8266. USB software stack is a firmware-only implementation of a USB. ESPUSB works in […]
