That's great, I suppose you can close this then, but the schematic is outdated.
I don't want to hijack this thread but: when will it be available and what will be the best way to purchase in the US?

What about devkit 0.9?

from nodemcu-devkit.

I hate to link to a commercial product, but https://www.mac-usb-serial.com - ~$7.50 for signed drivers. Given how cheap the 0.9 devkit is right now, I figured I'd try it.

They work for me as far as AT commands and the LUA REPL, however, I can't flash: some details at espressif/esptool#26 - looks like there are other issues with 0.9, so I'd avoid it.

Hi all, to fix this bug, we need your help.
The vendor of CH340G is WCH, we have contact them but they do not pay attention.
I think if more and more people feedback this problem, they will give us signed drivers for OS X.

@vowstar I've just bought devkit v1.0 – where do I find the drivers? There are some over the Internet, but I wanna be sure I use the correct one…

The SiLabs drivers are the right ones for NodeMCU devkit 1.0 and work out of the box on Yosemite. I have not been able to flash the firmware of the device though, and I don't know if that's due to the drivers.

@marcoskirsch connect a serial terminal at 74880 baud and then try to put your device in flash mode; per https://github.com/esp8266/esp8266-wiki/wiki/Boot-Process you want boot mode (1,7) - anything else indicates an issue with your wiring or your power supply.

Thanks @abl. In the interest of not derailing the conversation on the original issue, I opened a separate one: nodemcu/nodemcu-devkit-v1.0#3

I found these links where I only had to install the latest Arduino IDE from its website and then the drivers from either Github or the manufacturer’s website
