So...
With an assembled ESP-M3 Everything! board on hand, need a way to talk to these.
Temporary Expedient
Initially, a simple adaptor to use an existing USB-Serial board. (Guess I'll have to design my own next... :P )
I like these little CJMCU boards
They do pretty near everything
& they're even breadboard friendly...
But, I need to be able to just poke my devices with it, so...
The Plan Forward
To make these things really useful, it'd be nice to have a dedicated programming jig.
So I'm designing one.
Basically, it'll be a board with the exact same form as the ESP-Everything! boards themselves. (of course, much of the contents of the board will be different.) The programming header location will have short pogo pins in the pin header holes.
