    Directional antennas are a great way to put all of your Wi-Fi power in one direction, and they're useful for long distances or hunting down the source of a Wi-Fi signal. Unfortunately, using the antenna connector on the ESP8266 to add an antenna of our choice involves changing a resistor on the device. We'll show how to do this so you can add your own antenna to a D1 Mini Pro with an antenna connector!

    I believe you could just bridge the gap after removing the resistor.

    • @mikatorkkeli4932
      @mikatorkkeli4932 3 роки тому +3

      yep its just a jumper so bridge it with solder if the resistor goes flying or dont have heatgun or something :)

    • @candrasniper3404

      Agree with you. Zero resistor is a jumper.

    • @murraymadness4674
      @murraymadness4674 2 роки тому +1

      yep but notice there is another trace under the resistor, so straight wire might make contact on that trace if solder resist doesn't insulate it

  • @L4marca
    @L4marca 3 роки тому +4

    You don't actually need the SMD resistor. It's a 0 Ohm resistor, so a small wire (or just take cut of a small piece from a LED's pin) would work just as well, or just add some more solder to bridge the connectors, since it's such a small space between them.
    I've done this on two of my ESP32-CAM's.

  • @gundy3730
    @gundy3730 3 роки тому +3

    Awesome video! If you have some flux it will help to prevent it from flying away and make it easier to re-solder the resister back in to place, also it will make the solder joint much more secure.

    Just buy Iron Tweezers (aka Hot Tweezers) and make all this torture in one easy move. Hot air interventions are risky especially if you have cheap gun (with no thermal regulation).
    In this case you can get the job done with simple soldering iron. 000 resistors practically are jumpers/bridges. It's more easier and safer to remove it and improvise a new one by merging the solder between the pads of the new direction instead of relocate the component.

  • @GerardPinzone

    Why couldn't you just use a blob of solder to bridge the two if they're that small?

    Cut the trace to the board's antenna then add solder to bridge the pads to the external antenna.

    Bend a card board in "U" shape; it'll take parabola shape due to Hooke's law. Slap on some Al foil, put D1 mini at focal point, and tada, parabolic directional antenna without soldering.

  • @BlackWolf42-
    @BlackWolf42- 9 місяців тому

    Couldn't you just scrape the solder mask off from in-between the pads and just bridge them with a blob of solder and ditch the 0R resistor altogether?

  • @brianwilliams9706
    @brianwilliams9706 3 роки тому +1

    Why not cut the track to the inbuilt antenna and simply bridge the open link?

    • @hughaskew6550
      @hughaskew6550 3 роки тому

      My thoughts exactly. You don't need the 0 ohm "resistor" per se, just a connected path. You could make a solder bridge, replace the "resister" with a wire, etc.

    • @RoterFruchtZwerg
      @RoterFruchtZwerg 3 роки тому

      This is RF, you don't want signal reflections on a dead track.

    • @brianwilliams9706
      @brianwilliams9706 3 роки тому

      @@RoterFruchtZwerg As this could certainly be an issue at times, then we need only to cut the lead in track twice or even cut a track within the antenna grid.

    • @RoterFruchtZwerg
      @RoterFruchtZwerg 3 роки тому +1

      Pick an place machines assembling the board need something to place on there as jumpers, so 0 Ohm resistors are used. Solder-Bridges cannot be done with automatic reflow soldering.
      If you do it by hand, you may just bridge it with solder. However, this may slightly change RF characteristics

  • @madcapmagician6018
