Start wiring

USB · 3.3 V

Verify supply voltage and logic levels before powering up.

Module pins: 3V, GND, 0 (P0), 1 (P1), 2 (P2), P3, P4, P5. Schematik maps them to your board in the app.

Other MCUs

228 other options

Specialists: Teensy for high-clock audio and USB, Adafruit SAMD boards running CircuitPython or the Arduino IDE, proper STM32 eval kits, and the micro:bit classroom ecosystem. Schematik builds target ESP32, Arduino Uno, and Pico; come here when you have a specific reason to.
