LFlex21: common questions
What microcontroller does the LFlex21 use?
The LFlex21 is built around the MK48T12, from the NXP family.
How big is the LFlex21 PCB?
The LFlex21 measures 180.3 × 120.7 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the LFlex21?
77 components, from 48 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the LFlex21 design files?
From the laurent-fr/LFlex21 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the LFlex21 design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with laurent-fr. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the LFlex21 without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug NXP firmware against it before you order a PCB.
