It's our first Feather that is \u003cem\u003especifically\u003c\/em\u003e designed for use with CircuitPython! CircuitPython is our beginner-oriented flavor of MicroPython - and as the name hints at, its a small but full-featured version of the popular Python programming language specifically for use with circuitry and electronics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note\u003c\/strong\u003e, CircuitPython does not come preloaded.

At the Feather M0's heart is an ATSAMD21G18 ARM Cortex M0+ processor, clocked at 48 MHz and at 3.3V logic, the same one used in the new Arduino Zero. This chip has a whopping 256K of FLASH (8x more than the Atmega328 or 32u4) and 32K of RAM (16x as much)! This chip comes with built in USB so it has USB-to-Serial program \u0026amp; debug capability built in with no need for an FTDI-like chip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHere's some handy specs!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasures 2.0\" x 0.9\" x 0.28\" (51mm x 23mm x 8mm) without headers soldered in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight as a (large?) feather - 5 grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eATSAMD21G18 @ 48MHz with 3.3V logic\/power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e256KB of FLASH + 32KB of RAM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo EEPROM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32.768 KHz crystal for clock generation \u0026amp; RTC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.3V regulator with 500mA peak current output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB native support, comes with USB bootloader and serial port debugging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou also get tons of pins - 20 GPIO pins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware Serial, hardware I2C, hardware SPI support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePWM outputs on all pins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 x 12-bit analog inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x 10-bit analog ouput (DAC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt in 100mA lipoly charger with charging status indicator LED\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePin #13 red LED for general purpose blinking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower\/enable pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 mounting holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReset button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eFeather M0 Express\u003c\/strong\u003e uses the extra space left over to add a \u003cstrong\u003eMini NeoPixel\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e2 MB SPI Flash \u003c\/strong\u003estorage and a little prototyping space. You can use the SPI Flash storage like a very tiny hard drive. When used in CircuitPython, the 2 MB flash acts as storage for all your scripts, libraries and files. When used in Arduino, you can read\/write files to it, like a little datalogger or SD card, and then with our helper program, access the files over USB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEasy reprogramming\u003c\/strong\u003e: the Feather M0 comes pre-loaded with the UF2 bootloader, which looks like a USB storage key. Simply drag firmware on to program, no special tools or drivers needed! It can be used to load up CircuitPython, PXT MakeCode or Arduino IDE (it is bossa-compatible)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComes fully assembled and tested, with the UF2 USB bootloader.
