| Finally, only GPIO2 pin remains as a pin to be used for general purpose input/output, and even this under specific conditions. | Finally, only GPIO2 pin remains as a pin to be used for general purpose input/output, and even this under specific conditions. | ||
| - | There are of course several ways to bypass the problem. The easiest by far is to dump ESP-01 and use one of the several modules, such as the ESP-07 or ESP-12, or one of the development platforms such as NodeMCU, WeeMos D1 etc. which provide a larger number of GPIO pins. But, engineers are notorious for trying to squeeze every drop of juice, especially when our project requires only minimal resources, or when we have several spare ESP-01 modules in our lab bins. | + | There are of course several ways to bypass the problem.

| In this article, I will show you how to use all the available pins of ESP-01, in a couple of use cases. The article present only "how" it is done and not the details of "why" it is done like this. Please consult the official documentation to find additional information. Unfortunately, the popularity of the ESP8266 has made most of us learn the ESP-8266 platform mostly through articles and experimentation, rather than studying the lengthy documentation, and therefore, it is not my intention to present information that is not 100% correct. | In this article, I will show you how to use all the available pins of ESP-01, in a couple of use cases.
