new sonoff:4 channels, espeasy-compatible?

#1 Post by ambassadoro » 21 Dec 2016, 15:19

Hi,
it seems that itead becomes our favorite producer of esp-based items.
I just got an advertsiment from sonoff for this one: https://www.itead.cc/sonoff-4ch.html
Is has the ESP8285, documentation says, this is the 8266 with flash onchip. So, can it be used for espeasy?

Be aware: I don't have this module for testing. This is what i found about it on a quick search from the net:

ITEAD published the schematic of that board. Contrary to the "Sonoff Dual" module here is no secondary
cpu or chip between ESP and relays, the relay driver transistors and keys seem to be directly connected
to the ESP8285.

The 8285 is a 8266 with 8 MBit (1 MByte) integrated flash.

Connections:
Relays: GPIO 4, 5, 12, 15
Keys: GPIO 0 (Flashing!), 4, 9,10

There is a pin header for flashing firmware on the board near the LEDs.

Do not connect to mains voltage while flashing - you may fry...
Use an external 3,3V power supply.

As far as i can see from schematic it should work with ESPEasy - again, i can't test that atm.
