ESP8266 + I2S = Software-based 10-Base-T Ethernet Driver
https://www.electronics-lab.com/esp8266-i2s-software-based-10-base-t-ethernet-driver/
cnlohr @ github.com wanted to have an Ethernet interface for ESP8266 so he build one. more details on hackaday. This is a relatively unreliable and coincidentally functional ESP8266 Ethernet driver. It only uses two pins on the ESP, the I2S pins, but does provide Ethernet. It does all its own manchester encoding/decoding, framing, FCS, etc. It […]
