The ESP8266 can yield a 163 kHZ wave using the Arduino IDE and writing the code in C. The code used is:
Maximum Frequency an ESP8266 can yield
An ESP8266 running NodeMCU can yield maximum frequency of 1.44 kHz with a duty cycle of 61%. The wave form is given below. The code used to perform this test is:
Interrupt NodeMCU init.lua
It can be sometimes challenging to regain control of the NodeMCU running on a ESP8266 when init.lua has a tight loop in it. To do so, first, download esptool.py from GitHub.
Execute the following command
ESP8266 Resources Page
I have written a page that contains many useful links about the ESP8266 platform. You can display this page either using the top menu option "ESP8266 Resources" or by cliking on this link.
ESP8266 - Remarkable free book
A remarkable book about the ESP8266 is freely available. It can be downloaded from Kolban’s book on the ESP8266. It contains more than 300 pages of information. This book is a very good overview of the technology and a great starting point if you...

Arduino
What is the maximum frequency an Arduino can generate? Typically, I obtained a frequency of less than 100 kHz using the Arduino function calls. The results were lower than I expected. I also observed that I had a frequency higher by 25 kHz using a...
