# Notes on different hardware
As this example runs on multiple different mbed OS development boards there might be combinations of board and RF shields that may, or may not, work together due to pin collision or other reasons.
This page aims to collect information regarding different hardware combinations.
## RF shields
Following RF shield have been used with mbed OS mesh examples.
* [FIREFLY 6LOWPAN ARDUINO SHIELD](https://firefly-iot.com/product/firefly-arduino-shield-2-4ghz/)
* [Freedom Development Board for MCR20A](http://www.nxp.com/products/software-and-tools/hardware-development-tools/freedom-development-boards/freedom-development-board-for-mcr20a-wireless-transceiver:FRDM-CR20A)
* [X-NUCLEO-IDS01A4](http://www.st.com/content/st_com/en/products/ecosystems/stm32-open-development-environment/stm32-nucleo-expansion-boards/stm32-ode-connect-hw/x-nucleo-ids01a4.html)
* [DVK-NCS36510-MBED-GEVB](https://developer.mbed.org/platforms/NCS36510/) Development board, contains internal RF chip.
## Tested development boards
Following table shows which development boards have been tested. It does not present our current testing infrastructure, so we cannot guarantee all combinations but we do our best to ensure it is up to date.
| board / RF shield | Atmel | MCR20A | X-NUCLEO-IDS01A4 |

**Notes:**
1. If ethernet driver is enabled, requires HW modifications if RF shield uses SPI1. See [Driver notes](https://github.com/ARMmbed/sal-nanostack-driver-stm32-eth) and [nanostack-borderrouter-private Issue #17](https://github.com/ARMmbed/nanostack-border-router-private/issues/17)
2. Pin collision, see [mesh-minimal Issue 55](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os-example-mesh-minimal/issues/55)
3. X-NUCLEO-IDS01A4 expansion board required modifications to be used in mbed OS. See [Driver readme](https://github.com/ARMmbed/stm-spirit1-rf-driver)
