043 - MicroPython TechNotes: ESP12E External WiFi

In this video, I will demonstrate how you can use an external WiFi module such as an ESP12E using MicroPython.
I know this is not needed when using an ESP32 because it has its own builtin WiFi capability, but since this is included in Gorillacell ESP32 development kit, I decided to give it a try. Besides it can also be applied for microcontrollers without wireless capability such as the Raspberry Pi Pico and the STM32.
To use the ESP12E, we need to communicate to it through serial UART interface by sending specific AT commands.
It can be configured as (1) station mode, (2) access point AP mode, and (3) hybrid mode.
For this, I configured the module to function as station but it can also easily implements AP mode by using the class I created.
