6 open source boards using the RGB-LED

Real designs built with the RGB-LED, 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.

RGB-LED: common questions

Where can I find a RGB-LED reference design?

Each of the 6 boards on this page is a real design using the RGB-LED. Open one to see how it is wired up, with the full BOM, a render of the layout and links to its KiCad files.

What parts are used alongside the RGB-LED?

The Crystal Oscillator, ICE40UP5K-UWG30, LDO-X2SON-1.2V, LDO-X2SON-2.5V and LDO-X2SON-3.3V appear in the most repositories here.

Which microcontrollers do boards using the RGB-LED use?

Most are built on FPGA (2).

How big is a typical board using the RGB-LED?

The median is 92.5 × 96.8 mm, and 67% are two-layer designs.

What is the most popular open source board using the RGB-LED?

By GitHub stars, Tomu, I'm by theacodes, with 1,143 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the RGB-LED 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.
