Welcome!
And thank you for purchasing our AZ- Delivery ESP8266-12E with an adapter
board. On the following pages, we will take you through the soldering process of
the ESP8266 chip on the adapter board.
We wish you a lot of fun!
It is important to mention that an SMD component is being handled. It is not suitable
for beginners at soldering!
Before we can start soldering, we first have to check the scope of supply:
1x ESP8266-12F
1x adapter board (3 preassembled resistors)
2x pin header (8 Pin)
If everything had been delivered, we then prepare our material. You will also need:
Soldering iron with a fine tip

Page 2: Environmental Conditions
Areas of application The products are intended for the support and assembly of electronic components and circuits. Required knowledge and skills The use of these products requires basic knowledge of electrical engineering and the handling of electronic components. Users should be able to install the products correctly and take the necessary safety precautions. Environmental conditions The products should be used in an environment free from moisture, dust and direct sunlight. - Page 4 Solder for electronics (flux in the core) If possible de-soldering wire...
- Page 5 Soldering the board: After everything has been prepared, we will take the ESP8266 out of the packaging. And place it on the board to check it and its condition: The contacts should be the same as the ones on the picture, accurately matching when one lies on top of the other.
- Page 6 Now we remove the ESP-8266 again and we heat up our soldering iron. Depending on the solder used, the temperature should be between 300 - 330°C (solder containing lead) or 350 - 370°C (solder containing no lead). If the soldering iron is too hot, the flux might evaporate too quickly and the component (ESP8266-Chip) might overheat, leading to its death.
- Page 7 Now you can still make a small position adjustment, by heating the soldered joint, but be careful: do not heat it for too long, otherwise, the danger of death caused by overheating will occur. If the chip is attached to its intended location, we fix it by soldering the opposite contact.
- Page 8 Now we should solder the 2 opposite contacts: Firstly, you should heat up the contact and then add solder. Four contacts have now been soldered, meaning that the chip is now fixed and that it would not be able to slip anymore.
- Page 9 On the side, one contact after the other can now be soldered:...
- Page 10 If the one side is now finished, proceed with completing the other sides:...
- Page 11 Now all contacts are soldered:...
- Page 12 Now that we have soldered all of the SMD contacts, we can solder the pin headers on both sides. To do that, we should take the pin headers and put them on the board: Here we also solder, on each side, only one pin:...
- Page 13 Now, if necessary, you can still adjust and align the pin header. If both strips are correctly placed, then we should solder the pin on the other side: Let us solder the pins on each side :...
