4 open source boards using the Comment
Real designs built with the Comment, 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.

Microcontrollers on boards using the Comment
What boards using the Comment are built for
Comment: common questions
Where can I find a Comment reference design?
Each of the 4 boards on this page is a real design using the Comment. 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 Comment use?
Most are built on ESP8266 (1).
How big is a typical board using the Comment?
The median is 18.9 × 16.4 mm, and 75% are two-layer designs.
What is the most popular open source board using the Comment?
By GitHub stars, Project by PinkFluffyUnic0rn, with 10 stars.
Can I simulate one of these boards using the Comment 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.
