What Are Your Most Popular Dev Kits or Reference Design Kits?

rscasny
rscasny over 2 years ago

I was asked this question the other day. What Are Your Most Popular Dev Kits or Reference Design Kits? On impulse, I would venture to say the Raspberry Pi, Beaglebone. I'm sure there are others. Sensor kits, FPGA kits, Motor Contr0ol kits, Power kits, come to mind, but I'm not sure which ones element14 would consider "popular."

So, I figured I would ask you.  What are your most popular kits?  If you have the time, please leave a comment below. 

Thanks

Randall Scasny

    Arduino Uno and Raspberry Pi is my favorite.

    Personally, I'm a big fan of any boards that use the standard layouts such as Arduino Uno or Adafruit Feather. As such, the Nucleo boards from STMicro are always great to work with since they are Arduino…

    STM32 Nucleos are very popular. I have seen them everywhere where the serious MCUs designs are made. I think that there are two key things for making board popular: Price to performance ratio …

    I have way more kits than I have time to play with.

    You know, I heard on a podcast once: "stop accepting free dev kits (if you don't need them.)"

    And they were right. I literally have a box of dev kits that were given to me, but have never taken out of the original package.

    Hm. Any chance they'll be like original Star Wars action figures and worth something, some day?

    They could be my only hope.
