Which development board is suitable for low quantity production?

25 Sep 2016

Dear Community!

A month ago I remember seeing somewhere a list (or a filter option) on the mbed website that allowed to filter for boards that are production ready. Since then, I can't find that page any more, maybe it has been removed.

I know that the ST- Nucleo range of products do not give a production license. Therefore my question would be, what mbed board with CAN (preferably a transceiver) would be a reliable and cost effective solution if our low quantities do not warrant a custom pcb design.

thanks Tamas

Hello Tamas,
If 64kB flash meets you requirements then I think the most cost effective CAN enabled board would be a STM32F103C8T6. In case you need up to 128kB then a Maple Mini would be also a very good option.
With best regards,
