Mouser makes haste to supply makers with FEZ
Mouser Electronics is the first distributor to stock FEZ T18 maker boards, the latest boards in the FEZ series from GHI Electronics. The advanced and user-friendly boards are pinout-compatible with Arduino Uno boards and shields and can be programmed using multiple programming languages and development environments.
The boards incorporate a 32-bit STMicroelectronics STM32F4 Arm Cortex-M4 microcontroller with 512kBytes of flash and 96kBytes of SRAM. The STM32F4 chip is supported by a variety of common platforms — including Arduino, Arm mbed, MicroPython, Keil, GCC, and FreeRTOS — as well as GHI’s TinyCLR OS, enabling engineers to choose their development environments.
The TinyCLR OS enables managed .NET development and debugging using Visual Studio with support for programming in .NET, C# and Visual Basic — all over a USB cable with no additional hardware required.
It also includes the necessary drivers to make secure Wi-Fi connections available through a .NET-compatible interface.
The FEZ boards are available with an optional onboard Wi-Fi module that includes a complete and secure networking feature set for the Internet of Things (IoT).
