The NodeMCU board is fully supported by ESPHome. Simply select ``ESP8266`` when
the ESPHome wizard asks you for your platform and |nodemcuv2|_ as the board type.

.. note::
Most NodeMCU that can be purchased now are version 2 or upwards. If you're using an
2018-06-01 18:10:00 +02:00
original v1 board, set the board type to |nodemcu|_.

The NodeMCU's pin numbering as seen on the board (the ``D0`` etc pins) is different from
the internal pin numbering. For example, the ``D3`` pin number maps to the internal
2019-02-16 23:25:23 +01:00
``GPIO0`` pin. Fortunately ESPHome knows the mapping from the on-board pin numbers
to the internal pin numbering, but you need to prefix the pin numbers with ``D`` as in
the image below in order for this automatic mapping to occur.
2018-06-01 18:10:00 +02:00
In general, it is best to just use the ``D0``, ``D1``, ... pin numbering to avoid confusion

Pins on the NodeMCU ESP8266 development board.
Note that in certain conditions you *can* use the pins marked as ``INTERNAL`` in above image.
- ``D0`` also can be used to wake the device up from :doc:`deep sleep </components/deep_sleep>` if
2021-08-25 03:37:12 +02:00
the pin is connected to the ``RESET`` pin. On some boards ``D0`` is additionally connected to the LED
2018-06-01 18:10:00 +02:00
next to the UART chip, but in an inverted mode.
- ``D3``, ``D4`` and ``D8`` are used on startup to determine the boot mode, therefore these pins should
not be pulled low on startup. You can, however, still use them as output pins.
2021-08-25 03:37:12 +02:00
- ``D4`` additionally is connected to the blue LED next to the antenna, but in an inverted mode.
2018-06-01 18:10:00 +02:00
- ``A0``: This pin can be used as a normal GPIO pin (like ``D1`` etc) but additionally can measure
voltages from 0 to 1.0V using the :doc:`/components/sensor/adc`.
- ``VIN``: This board can be powered by an external power supply by using this pin. Supply a voltage depends on the board you use. Some boards support up to 12V, some up to 5V.
2018-06-01 18:10:00 +02:00
- ``ENABLE``/``RESET``: When these pins are triggered, the board resets. The difference between the pins
is how they can handle voltages above 3.3V.
