3 open source boards using the 8MHZ
Real designs built with the 8MHZ, from public GitHub projects: a quick way to see how others power, decouple and connect it. Each board comes with its KiCad files, full parts list and a render — and you can simulate its firmware on HardLabs.

8MHZ: common questions
Where can I find a 8MHZ reference design?
Each of the 3 boards on this page is a real design using the 8MHZ. Open one to see how it is wired up, with the full BOM, a render of the layout and links to its KiCad files.
What parts are used alongside the 8MHZ?
The 100N, 10N, 10P, 10U and 30P appear in the most repositories here.
Which microcontrollers do boards using the 8MHZ use?
Most are built on STM32 (3).
How big is a typical board using the 8MHZ?
The median is 50 × 52 mm, and 100% are two-layer designs.
What is the most popular open source board using the 8MHZ?
By GitHub stars, GPS-Tracker by mohamedboubaker, with 40 stars.
Can I simulate one of these boards using the 8MHZ 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.
