Re: CH_PD pin in an ESP12(E) for power down mode

Thanks again, I'll try the CH_PD low having peripherals connected and see how it goes.

When I was refering the weak pull-ups I was refering the 'on-chip' pull-ups, but when I was saying that I didn't know if the ESP-12 had pull-ups inside the module shield, I was 'comparing' with another ESP module that I currently use from Olimex, that has 12k pull-ups in both the reset and enable pins, so when I use these modules I shouldn't include any additional pull up on my circuit. You can check it here (R13 and R14 are the pull-ups):

Yes, it is better to have external pullups and not trusting the "weak" internal ones.
