The RA8M1 allows you to achieve the full potential of a real-time operating system (RTOS) while leveraging the performance boost provided by the 64-bit Arm® Cortex®-M85 CPU core with a maximum operating frequency of 480 MHz.

Besides the processor, the Feather SoM contains the classic Feather features: GPIOs (analog and digital), I2C and SPI communication pins, UART pins, a LiPo battery power plug, and the USB programming port. The SoM also features a USB Type-C for powering the board and for USB debug upload.

Feather format

Feather is a flexible and powerful family of microcontroller main-boards (Feathers) and daughter-boards (Wings) with a wide range of capabilities. They can be plugged into a breadboard for quick prototyping, have built-in battery connectors for your on-the-go projects, and most have built-in lipoly chargers.
