Designing of PCBs for ESPboy modules
01/31/2022 at 20:14 • 2 commentsTo date, quite a few prototype expansion modules have been developed for ESPboy. There are almost 30 so far. The prototypes are fine-tuned, both the hardware part and the software part. All prototypes are made on breadboards to date. It's time to make the factory PCBs!
For a start, I made three
1. CC1101 for ESPboy Sub1Ghz inspector and ESPboy scanner
2. LORA for ESPboy LORA up to 8km offgrid messenger
3. Weather station for ESPboy weather station :)
Ordered the fabrication on easyeda. After the tests, all circuits and boards will be available for ordering at EasyEda.com, and probably also available for purchase at Tindie.com

Doom-nano ported for ESPboy
12/06/2021 at 12:24 • 0 commentsJust ported for fun famous Doom-nano by David Ruiz for the ESPboy
This is not an actual Doom game, just picked some sprites from it (and simplified a lot). The rendering engine is more like a Wolfeistein 3D.
