ESP8266 OEM Solutions

Our standard minimum order quantity for ESP8266 OEM production is 5,000 units for custom modules. For existing module designs, we can accommodate smaller runs starting at 1,000 units. Prototyping services are available for as few as 10-50 units to validate designs before full production. Volume discounts apply for orders exceeding 50,000 units.

The timeline for ESP8266 OEM projects varies based on complexity. Typically, the design phase takes 2-4 weeks, followed by prototyping (1-2 weeks), testing and validation (1-2 weeks), and certification (if required) taking 4-8 weeks. Once approved, production lead times are 3-6 weeks depending on order volume. For simple modifications to existing designs, the process can be completed in 4-6 weeks.

Yes, firmware development is a core part of our ESP8266 OEM services. Our engineering team can develop custom firmware tailored to your specific requirements, including WiFi configuration, communication protocols (MQTT, HTTP, TCP/IP), security implementations, and integration with cloud platforms. We also provide firmware optimization for power consumption, performance, and specific application needs.

We provide comprehensive certification assistance for ESP8266 OEM modules including FCC (USA), CE (EU), IC (Canada), RCM (Australia), and other regional certifications required for wireless devices. Our team manages the entire certification process from pre-testing to documentation submission and can design modules with certification requirements in mind from the beginning, minimizing delays and additional costs.

Yes, we provide comprehensive post-production support for all ESP8266 OEM projects. This includes technical assistance for integration, firmware updates, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement recommendations. We offer flexible support packages including dedicated technical account managers for high-volume clients and can provide ongoing production support for product lifecycle management, including component obsolescence planning and design updates as needed.

For existing designs, we typically require Gerber files, BOM (Bill of Materials), and schematic diagrams. If you need full design services, we can work from specifications including functional requirements, form factor constraints, interface definitions, and performance criteria. Our engineering team can also review and optimize your existing designs for manufacturability, cost, and performance as part of our ESP8266 OEM service offering.
