Product details

Overview

The NodeMCU ESP8266 V3 (CH340G) is an open-source LUA-based firmware and development board specifically designed for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. This "V3" version is slightly larger than the V2 but offers a more budget-friendly price point by utilizing the CH340G USB-TTL IC.

It is the perfect choice for students, hobbyists, and developers looking to build WiFi-connected sensors, web servers, or remote-controlled robotics without a high cost per unit.

CP2102 vs. CH340G: What's the difference?

While both boards use the same ESP8266 chip, the CH340G variant is wider (occupies more breadboard rows) and requires the CH341 driver installed on your computer. It provides the exact same WiFi functionality and processing power at a significantly lower price.

Pinout Configuration

Digital Pins (D0 - D10): All except D0 support PWM, I2C, and One-Wire.
Analog Pin (A0): Used for reading analog sensors (0V - 1.0V internal, module supports up to 3.3V).
Communication: Hardware Serial (TX/RX), SPI, and I2C.

Pro Tip: If your computer does not recognize the board when plugged in, ensure you have the CH340G drivers installed.

Popular Use Cases

Smart Agriculture: Soil moisture monitoring (perfect for our Smart Plant Watering Kit).
Home Automation: Controlling relays via a web dashboard.
Data Logging: Sending sensor data to platforms like Blynk, Adafruit IO, or Supabase.
