What boards using the FT231X are built for
FT231X: common questions
Where can I find a FT231X reference design?
Each of the 3 boards on this page is a real design using the FT231X. 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 FT231X use?
Most are built on AVR/Arduino (1), ESP32 (1) and STM32 (1).
How big is a typical board using the FT231X?
The median is 61 × 100 mm, and 100% are two-layer designs.
What is the most popular open source board using the FT231X?
By GitHub stars, ATMEGA328-Motor-Board by AntonioMR, with 39 stars.
Can I simulate one of these boards using the FT231X 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.
