What boards using the Mag Switch are built for
Mag Switch: common questions
Where can I find a Mag Switch reference design?
Each of the 2 boards on this page is a real design using the Mag Switch. 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 Mag Switch use?
Most are built on PIC (1) and STM32 (1).
How big is a typical board using the Mag Switch?
The median is 70.1 × 56.4 mm, and 0% are two-layer designs.
What is the most popular open source board using the Mag Switch?
By GitHub stars, SRAD Altimeter by waterloo-rocketry, with 14 stars.
Can I simulate one of these boards using the Mag Switch 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.
