What boards using the FE1.1 are built for

FE1.1: common questions

Where can I find a FE1.1 reference design?

Each of the 5 boards on this page is a real design using the FE1.1. 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 FE1.1 use?

Most are built on Microchip SAM (1) and STM32 (1).

How big is a typical board using the FE1.1?

The median is 58.4 × 68.6 mm, and 40% are two-layer designs.

What is the most popular open source board using the FE1.1?

By GitHub stars, USBHub by wickerwaka, with 34 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the FE1.1 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.
