A breadboard-friendly ESP12E/F breakout with all I/O pins available, flash/reset buttons onboard, and place to directly use it with FTDI modules like [FT232RL FTDI Serial Adapter Module](https://www.banggood.com/FT232RL-FTDI-USB-To-TTL-Serial-Converter-Adapter-Module-p-917226.html?rmmds=buy&cur_warehouse=CN).

## Assembly 

| No  |   Component   |    Quantity      |

|:---:|:-------------:|:----------------:|

| 1.  |      ESP8266 - 12e/f         | 1 | 

| 2.  |    10KΩ 0805 smd resistors   | 5 | 

| 3.  |      SMD-SWITCH-6.2MM        | 2 |

| 4.  | Pin Header 1x11 Male 2.54 mm | 2 |

### Notes

* If you want to power up ESP8266-Breakout directly from a FTDI board, you need to solder the jumper that exists on the bottom side of the ESP8266-Breakout. **IMPORTANT:** Do not forget to change the jumper to 3.3V instead of 5V, on the FTDI module.

* If you want to use ESP8266-Breakout with a breadboard.

  - Connect Vcc to 3.3V

  - Connect Gn to Ground

  - You do not need to connect EN pin (ESP8266-Breakout itself has the required connection)

  - You do not need to add any extra pull-up or pull-down resistors on GPIO15, GPIO2 or GPIO0 for Boot Mode Selection
