RM2: common questions
Where can I find a RM2 reference design?
Each of the 2 boards on this page is a real design using the RM2. 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 RM2 use?
Most are built on Raspberry Pi (1) and RP2040/RP2350 (1).
How big is a typical board using the RM2?
The median is 60.1 × 55.8 mm, and 50% are two-layer designs.
What is the most popular open source board using the RM2?
By GitHub stars, SparkFun XRP Controller by sparkfun, with 14 stars.
Can I simulate one of these boards using the RM2 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.
