Description

Cactus Micro is our integrated developement board, we have mixed Arduino with WIFI into a single board. It is targeted for makers to develop low power Internet-Of-Things (IoT) projects quickly and easily.

The micro-controller unit (MCU) is Atmel ATmega32U4 and the WIFI chip is ESP8266.

How It Works

• The ESP8266 chip communicates with Atmega32U4 through the SoftwareSerial or Serial (hardware serial port). It can be switched by a jumper. The default port for communicattion is SoftwareSerial port (RX: 11, TX: 12)
• The pin 13 is connected to pin CH_PD of ESP8266. Put the pin 13 high to enable ESP8266 chip.
