How big is a typical board using the BMA400?

The median is 45 × 36.1 mm, and 33% are two-layer designs.

What is the most popular open source board using the BMA400?

By GitHub stars, Open smartwatch light by Open-Smartwatch, with 246 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the BMA400 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.
