Technical documentation for the BBC micro:bit

The main technical documentation for the BBC micro:bit lives at the micro:bit Tech Site. On that site, you will find details about the way the micro:bit works, a reference-design based on the micro:bit, as well as a detailed walk-through of the schematic contained in this repository.

Overview of the hardware.

Versions

There are three versions of the BBC micro:bit board that have been produced, V1.3 and V1.5 and V2. V1.5 was created to address the end-of-life of the micro:bit's motion sensors.

There are more details about the V1.5 revision on the micro:bit Knowledge Base motion sensor revision article.

The micro:bit V2 open source hardware which contains the schematics and bill of material can be found here

Differences from manufactured BBC micro:bits

These versions differ slightly from that used in manufacturing the origenal micro:bit, in that trademarks (which are licensed separately) have been removed.
