Microcontrollers on boards using the NEO-M8M

NEO-M8M: common questions

Where can I find a NEO-M8M reference design?

Each of the 4 boards on this page is a real design using the NEO-M8M. 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 NEO-M8M use?

Most are built on ESP32 (2), PIC (1) and STM32 (1).

How big is a typical board using the NEO-M8M?

The median is 114.5 × 110 mm, and 75% are two-layer designs.

What is the most popular open source board using the NEO-M8M?

By GitHub stars, Explorer by anyshake, with 95 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the NEO-M8M 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.
