Introducing: ayatec sensoraya PCB v2.1 – The User Guide

ayatec — Fri, 13 Feb 2026 19:47:19 +0000

To unlock the full potential of the ESP32-S3, we developed the next generation of our programmable I/O boards. The ayatec sensoraya v2 bridges the gap between silicon and the physical world by significantly expanding the already powerful ESP32-S3‘s native I/O capabilities. This allows the sensoraya v2 to serve as a robust foundation for everything from ... Read more

Introducing: ayatec sensoraya PCB v1.4 – The User Guide

ayatec — Tue, 12 Mar 2024 09:05:24 +0000

1. Introduction While the ESP8266 microcontroller (with or without unicontrol) still remains to be a powerful choice for any IoT automation project, the bare ESP8266 in any of its forms has a critical lack of I/O options without a supporting PCB. With only 9 digital GPIO pins and 1 analog pin it is underequipped for ... Read more

Introducing: The ESP12F-X4 Relay Module

ayatec — Thu, 18 May 2023 11:09:58 +0000

Numerous third-party modules featuring the ESP8266 microcontroller are readily available in the market. Modules carrying the versions ESP-12E, ESP-12F, or ESP-12S are natively supported by unicontrol as they are equipped with 4MB Flash memory or more. They are typically less convenient when it comes to firmware uploads, compared to development boards like the WeMOS D1 ... Read more

Introducing: The Relay Module HW-622

ayatec — Mon, 24 Apr 2023 16:57:17 +0000

The majority of simple home projects do not require custom-made PCBs like the one demonstrated in the Bath Vent Project. Numerous ready-made modules featuring ESP8266 (or a socket for one) are available, most commonly integrating the ESP-12E or ESP-12F. These modules are natively supported by unicontrol, as they come equipped with 4MB Flash memory or more. Unlike development boards such ... Read more

Manual flashing of ESP8266 unicontrol

Jaroslav Liptak — Sat, 11 Feb 2023 15:52:00 +0000

Manual flashing of the ESP8266 may be necessary if, for any reason, the standard web installer upload is inaccessible. We recommend uploading the software image in .bin format to your ESP8266 using the NodeMCU Firmware Programmer. This tool has an intuitive interface, works reliably, and is easy to use, even for beginners. Download the .bin ... Read more

Unicontrol Basics Part 1 – Intro to the System

Jaroslav Liptak — Sat, 14 Jan 2023 21:06:07 +0000

The unicontrol software was developed as a small intelligent control system tailored-made for ESP8266 modules and primarily intended for our ESPtronic V1.2 board. It is however, also possible and very effective to use it for a number of ready-made control units from most manufacturers equipped with the ESP8266 module. This includes industrially used components such ... Read more
