Which microcontrollers do boards using the Blue Pill use?
Most are built on AVR/Arduino (8).
How big is a typical board using the Blue Pill?
The median is 114.1 × 100 mm, and 100% are two-layer designs.
What is the most popular open source board using the Blue Pill?
By GitHub stars, NES backup by digilogistist, with 24 stars.
Can I simulate one of these boards using the Blue Pill 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.
