What boards using the 4052 are built for

4052: common questions

Where can I find a 4052 reference design?

Each of the 4 boards on this page is a real design using the 4052. Open one to see how it is wired up, with the full BOM, a render of the layout and links to its KiCad files.

Which microcontrollers do boards using the 4052 use?

Most are built on PIC (1), RP2040/RP2350 (1) and STM32 (1).

How big is a typical board using the 4052?

The median is 109.5 × 88.5 mm, and 100% are two-layer designs.

What is the most popular open source board using the 4052?

By GitHub stars, NES backup by digilogistist, with 24 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the 4052 before building it?

Yes. HardLabs turns a board's netlist and BOM into a working simulation, so you can boot and test firmware against it with no hardware on your desk.
