We'd love to say our Thing Plus boards come in all shapes and size; but they don't. Instead they come in the same form factor all with different specifications and peripherals to meet a robust variety of needs.

What is a Thing Plus Board?

Consistent Footprint

Commonly known as the Feather footprint, Thing Plus boards are 2.3" x .9" (58.42mm x 22.86mm). This small form factor is compatible with many of the shields on the market today.

Qwiic Connectors

Each one of our Thing Plus boards has a 3.3v Qwiic Connector to quickly interface development boards with sensors, LCDs, relays and more over I²C.

Abundant Options

There's a Thing for everyone. From Raspberry Pi's new RP2040 to the trusty SAMD51, we have over a dozen options to choose from to fit the needs of your project.
