A STM32F4 BASED ARDUINO IN THE FEATHER FORM FACTOR

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

[minh7a6] loves the Adafruit Feather, but sees some room for improvement. First is the matter of 5V tolerance. While just about everything is available in a 3.3v range these days, sometimes it’s just nice not to have to care. The main controller on the Feather is plenty powerful, but its intolerant pins just wouldn’t do so
