Microcontrollers on boards using the MDBT42Q
What boards using the MDBT42Q are built for
MDBT42Q: common questions
Where can I find a MDBT42Q reference design?
Each of the 12 boards on this page is a real design using the MDBT42Q. 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 MDBT42Q use?
Most are built on Nordic nRF (11) and STM32 (1).
How big is a typical board using the MDBT42Q?
The median is 66.5 × 42.5 mm, and 100% are two-layer designs.
What is the most popular open source board using the MDBT42Q?
By GitHub stars, Scale hx711 by IoTReady, with 7 stars.
Can I simulate one of these boards using the MDBT42Q 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.
