HI Looking a bit more closely at the remains of the “chopped up” boards with the M8T’s on them … This board is *not* the source of those devices. What’s left of the marking on those boards does not line up with what’s on these (now sold out) boards.
There seems to be at least one switching regulator on this board, a CPU (with JTAG programming connector ??), and a fairly elaborate antenna bias / protection circuit. No idea what might be on the back of the board. With any luck, they will get more of these in stock.
