On the ESP8266 you can even measure the voltage the *chip is getting*. This can be useful in situations
where you want to shut down the chip if the voltage is low when using a battery.
To measure the VCC voltage, set ``pin:`` to ``VCC`` and make sure nothing is connected to the ``A0`` pin.
.. note::
To avoid confusion: It measures the voltage at the chip, and not at the VCC pin of the board. It should usually be around 3.3V.
