ESP01 with Arduino UNO

Hi,

I am working on a project where I have interfaced Arduino UNO with the ESP01 module.

The project is working fine but as its a semester project so my advisor has added a new thing in it.

He wants me to design a PCB board of ESP01 module, which should be compatible with Arduino UNO design, so that we could plug it in and it should also have the capability to flash ESP01 chip.

Can someone please provide me the PCB design as I am not good with hardware and I am afraid if designed it, the final board will have many bugs.

Thanks.

It sounds like the lesson is for YOU to design the PCB?

Don’t be afraid to make mistakes or have bugs, that’s how you learn how to do things and do them better the next time! :slight_smile:

Sparkfun has some tutorials that can help, check the link below for a home page of links. Don’t get discouraged, give it a try. It seems super complicated at first but once you’ve done it a few times it’s not bad at all.

You may get some ideas from this design:

The board is based on the Arduino UNO board. It is intended to flash the ESP01 module and also be used to connect the Arduino to the cloud through the ESP01. It just requires placing some jumpers on the board to change the mode between programming and WiFi. For now, through-hole components are used, but for future versions, I will add SMD components.
