Gotta love Charles' enthusiasm at 6:06 when he breaks the news about running the esp at 346 MHz!

Super impressive, as always, man! Wow!

You are the ESP8266 Wizard

Nobody will ever need another micro controller, when you (and all the others) are done with the ESP.

Great stuff. Faster turnaround means faster, more frequent feedback which gives you more incentive to continue working on and experimenting on a project.

I'm always amazed when you find out something new about the ESP. And I'm also really envy of your enthusiams. :) Good job!

Awesome video, love to see more from you on the 8266. I used my first one about six months ago to build a wifi fish tank light, and since have been using them exclusively for my tiny arduino projects.

the next thing we know, this guy connects a gtx 1080 to esp8266 and play battlefield 1 at 4k60fps.

Charles, thank you this is great! Keep up the good work, God bless you.

I like it because you are usually calm in your videos, this time you couldn't help yourself XD

I love the way you get so excited about it xD Great work dude hahah

That is incredible. As always amazing work.

Wow, thank you for the great information. Wonder what you will do with the ESP32!

Wow, that's really impressive! Good job on this, i'm sure this will come in handy in a lot of cases!

Like it? Love it! 👏

Great enthusiasm ! good work!

You did it again, man, this is awesome!! would this overclocking help with the lack of time precision to implement the positioning system based on the RSSI?

This is going to upgrade so many projects all around the world. This just makes me think.. the way we work with each other's information between silicon fabricators, chip designers, board designers, firmware developers and software developers is so inefficient. We would have known about this right off the bat if we just collaborated more for the sake of progress. Why don't people realize that sharing more information is better for everyone?

Long time ago I wrote a printf in x86 assembly that did %s and %i in only 116 bytes...

After I learnt how to program those, I kinda ditched Arduino. But my question is: does it overheat when overclocked? Specially if running something that actually requires those 380+MHz...

Guy you are insane, nor in my crazy dream I would imagene a code run in more than 80Mhz, but you did it run in 346Mhz. INSANE.... Good job ..., thank you for the share...

It’s been a year since this was released - have you developed anything similar for the ESP32 and/or continued development for the 8266? Love the work! -H

I think I might have salivated when I saw that compile+upload speed. edit: I just clicked your name. This video and 'Self Bio' auto play video thing sold me in 20 seconds(I actually closed that window from then). I subbed in for more. -Thanks dude.

Could you make a tutorial on how to flash the esp8266 very fast. With the sdk and stuff

The future is here: if you look at the ARM based alternatives they are all running out of steam. Thanks for your videos man, they are great inspiration and show how to approach things from an analytical point of view: the rest is as you said, imagination!

you rock! congrats!!!

Love you bro

REALLY cool ! Any idea of the max CPU frequency where Wifi is still usable ?

Cool! Would it be possible to use such high clock speed in Arduino IDE? I'm playing with this MCU, LCD displays and graphics (for example raytracing as shown on my YT channel) It should significantly speed up everything.

Bloody heck that is impressive! It's a $2 Microcontroller and it's running at 346MHz; blows my mind.

346 Mhz... that is faster then any Pentium I and faster then most Pentium II processors... for 2$... insane

ESP Goes VROOM! Edit: Looking into getting an ESP. What board do you use?

next video: "How I burned down my house by overclocking an esp8266"

..well done, thanks

You rock!

I like your enthusiasm, can't say that I share it with you. I have given up pretty much on my NODEMCU/ESP 8266 module. The constant crashing was driving me nuts and that LUA language was not a bit helpful. So I see you are using C code. So I presume you do compile the code. Would your SDK work for my board?

Well of-course the video is awesome but I loved your enthusiasm @ 6:03

What Espressif doesn't want you to know!! $2 MCU running at crazy high frequencies without crashing i hope? i'm sold.

Please do this with an ESP32!

I understand about 2% of what you say in your videos but not because you explains are poor but because I have a lot to learn. I’ll get it someday, then I’ll understand.

Wow. That is impressive. I remember the last time I program my ESP out of the box it runs for short time and died lol idk why I gave up

It's extremely underrated and should be the next arduino killer.

Can the wifi part be completely disabled via software, or a simple castration of a PCB trace, as to not draw any power? Only the processor/flash bit is important to me. Have WiFi coming out of my ying-yang. I google first, and ask questions later. I can't find that answer.

gr8 news!

Incredible work sir! Absolutely beautiful video. Love the enthusiasm and excitement. 346MHz! Sweet.

Any update to report?

It's easy to overclock Teensy4, K210, and Pi Pico. Will there be a way to overclock ESP32 S3? Thanks!

To trick it out like this, it likely won't last long, or be reliable, but even so, you get all that speed, which is what some people need, but it would have to be for an application that is looking for speed and not reliability or durability. But even if it lasts and is reliable enough, you still need an application that needs a ton of speed, and few pins. It is such a weird idea in the first place, in true classic CNLohr style, that is hard to get up to speed on how it could be applied. Some type of real time app like some type of a real time controller, like maybe a game controller. I have no idea.

Overclocking to 320MHz makes the Peripheral Bus Clock running at 80MHz, just as with the clock with 80Mhz and 160MHz. Would that make Wi-Fi usable again? And is it possible to Overclock with nonos SDK because I have no experience with nosdk8266 or not using an SDK, or would nosdk8266 be a little like "just" programming in C?

I'd give you 5 thumbs up for thinking out of the box to do something amazing! You'll have to settle for 1, so UKposts doesn't sic their algorithms on you!

Wauw!

I tried to simulate I²C on the ESP8266 via software but i encountered the problem that the esp8266 resets itself every ~100ms if i turn GPIOs on and off very fast. Did you noticed something similar?

Charles, can I use it to make a FM transmitter based on CH3 project?

Would it be useful as the base for a cheap but high performance function generator?

Mad overclocking! You're not putting it into liquid nitrogen though, so that's a minus. :d

Hey dude I need to put Esp8266 in Access point mode and need to create a udp socket to sent data to another esp but it's not working can you help me out of it.

Guys we need to make some kind of ESPx workshop/IDE app, something like the Arduino IDE, which makes it easy to develop things on different ESP chips, what do you think?

Can i overclock my esp8266 at 346mhz from Arduino IDE?i'm using windows 10

so... you are worrying about warranty with a 2$ chip? otherwise you did some really good work

How are you this amazing you are my mancrush.

Wow :D

Does this also make it boot faster than it does with the "big SDK"? As in, could this be used for increased battery life on a battery powered ESP?

What happens to the wifi ability when you over clock it like this?

Where has this gone?

Wonder how hot it gets at 346mhz...

But it doesn't look as easy to program with integrations of the wifi functionality.

surely if it's a 1k challenge you'd write it in assembler? 131 bytes starting point? for shame. :D

can u help in how to use a pin as input is there any funtion like the PIN_OUT_SET or PIN_IN

Where the hell do we get ESP8266's ?The ones i search on ebay look nothing like the one you have.

Why "bound by wifi"? and why unbounding it allows higher clock?

How did you learn these things in such a detail. Give me some tips to learn esp8266 in depth. Plz...

What about the esp32? nosdk32?

Hey, esp32 is coming with 240mhz clock

That is fucking awesome! Can you make it work with arduino? What's the power consumption like without the dtim sleep modes?

But can it run Crysis?

What the fuck man you made even minecraft server with it (ik that not normal with java) but still fucking 1kb of ram but i had problem to connect arduino with it to Wi-Fi

LMAO "warranty"

lol, i bought one a few months ago, i had flashed a deauth-ing program, then i started getting orders from people at my school, i now have sold 30 and have 52 in stock ready to be sold. i sell then for $8 a piece and i buy them for $3 a piece
