Which microcontrollers do boards using the DRV8301 use?

Most are built on STM32 (7).

How big is a typical board using the DRV8301?

The median is 40 × 40 mm, and 14% are two-layer designs.

What is the most popular open source board using the DRV8301?

By GitHub stars, Cheap-FOCer-2 by shamansystems, with 405 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the DRV8301 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.
