NRF52840-microstamp: common questions

What microcontroller does the NRF52840-microstamp use?

The NRF52840-microstamp is built around the NRF52840, from the Nordic nRF family.

How big is the NRF52840-microstamp PCB?

The NRF52840-microstamp measures 37 × 25 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the NRF52840-microstamp?

45 components, from 29 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the NRF52840-microstamp design files?

From the cheyao/nRF52840-microstamp repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the NRF52840-microstamp design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with cheyao. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the NRF52840-microstamp without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug Nordic nRF firmware against it before you order a PCB.
