7 open source boards using the Arduino_Nano

Real designs built with the Arduino_Nano, 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.

The Arduino_Nano in open source designs

The gallery holds 7 open source boards using the Arduino_Nano from 6 GitHub repositories; a typical one measures about 100 × 100 mm and carries around 48 components.

100% are two-layer designs, the rest use four layers or more, and 29% carry an open source license.

Microcontrollers on boards using the Arduino_Nano

Arduino_Nano: common questions

Where can I find a Arduino_Nano reference design?

Each of the 7 boards on this page is a real design using the Arduino_Nano. 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 Arduino_Nano use?

Most are built on AVR/Arduino (6) and STM32 (1).

How big is a typical board using the Arduino_Nano?

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

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

By GitHub stars, Mainboard by ukmars, with 137 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the Arduino_Nano 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.
