Seeed XIAO BLE nRF52840 - development kit with nRF52840 microcontroller

Description

Development board equipped with Nordic nRF52840 MCU chip, which integrates Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity. Its small dimensions make it suitable for use in wearable devices and IoT projects. It is dedicated to surface mounting, and the built-in Bluetooth antenna can greatly facilitate the rapid implementation of IoT projects.

The user has a Near Field Communication (NFC) interface, a reset button and a 3-in-1 LED (user LED) with a charge LED that indicates the charging status when the battery is connected. There are 11 digital I / O that can be used as PWM pins and 6 analog I/O used as ADC pins. It supports all three popular serial interfaces such as UART, I2C and SPI.

The module can be powered by a USB type C connector (the connector is also used for programming the system) or by pins 5 V or 3.3 V. The microcontroller works with a voltage of 3.3 V, and connecting signals with a higher voltage may damage the system. The kit is Arduino compatible and can be programmed using Arduino IDE, MicroPython and CircuitPython. Full documentation of the module with examples of use is available on the product page.
