Which microcontrollers do boards using the FT230XQ use?

Most are built on AVR/Arduino (1) and STM32 (1).

How big is a typical board using the FT230XQ?

The median is 75.7 × 36.8 mm, and 40% are two-layer designs.

What is the most popular open source board using the FT230XQ?

By GitHub stars, Dock-HW by ZSWatch, with 38 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the FT230XQ 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.
