Published Updated 3 views

Seeed Studio XIAO nRF52840 overview

The Seeed Studio XIAO nRF52840 is a Developer Board. Main ratings: Processor Nordic nRF52840, ARM® Cortex®-M4 with FPU runs up to 64 MHz; Wireless Bluetooth 5.0/NFC; On-chip Memory 1 MB flash and 256 kB RAM; Onboard Memory 2 MB QSPI flash. This page brings together the Seeed Studio XIAO nRF52840 pinout and key specifications, with the full datasheet PDF to preview below or download.

Seeed Studio XIAO Series are diminutive development boards, sharing a similar hardware structure, where the size is literally thumb-sized. Seeed Studio XIAO nRF52840 has an ultra-low power consumption of only 5 μA in the deep sleep mode, the embedded BQ25101 chip supports battery charge management which prolongs its use time. Moreover, Seeed Studio XIAO nRF52840 supports the USB Type-C interface which can supply power and download code. It also has rich On-chip Memory of 1 MB flash and 256 kB RAM, and an Onboard Memory of 2 MB QSPI flash.

Seeed Studio XIAO nRF52840 has 11 digital I/O that can be used as PWM pins and 6 analog I/O that can be used as ADC pins. It supports UART, IIC, and SPI all three common serial ports. 1 Reset button, 1 3-in-one LED, 1 Charge LED, and 1 Bluetooth antenna are on board, allowing developers to debug their code very easily.
