Seeed Studio XIAO nRF52840 - Soldered
Seeed Studio XIAO nRF52840 - Soldered has a 5-10 day lead time before dispatch. Order will only be sent once all items are available for delivery.
Seeed Studio XIAO nRF52840 (XIAO BLE) is a Bluetooth-enabled development board built around the Nordic nRF52840 chip, packed into the classic 21 x 17.8mm XIAO form factor. It runs an ARM Cortex-M4 with FPU at up to 64 MHz and is supported by Arduino, CircuitPython, and MicroPython, making it a solid choice for both wireless prototyping and low-power embedded projects.
Solder-Free for Instant Creation
This version comes with headers already soldered on, so there's no soldering iron required. Just unbox it and plug straight into a breadboard, ideal for rapid prototyping, workshops, and beginner-friendly builds.
Wireless Connectivity and Low Power Design
The board includes Bluetooth Low Energy 5.4 with an onboard antenna, along with NFC connectivity. Power design is equally considered, with deep sleep consumption as low as 5 μA and built-in lithium battery charge management, making it well suited to battery-powered and wearable applications.
Thumb-Sized and Production-Ready
At 21 x 17.8mm, it keeps the classic XIAO footprint, and its breadboard-friendly SMD design with no components on the back makes it easy to work with on the bench or integrate into a finished product.
