Which microcontrollers do boards using the A use?

Most are built on RP2040/RP2350 (2).

How big is a typical board using the A?

The median is 81.3 × 99.8 mm, and 100% are two-layer designs.

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

By GitHub stars, GameTiger by codetiger, with 79 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the A 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.
