We’re releasing our internal Gaming MCU Database. Should we expand to audio devices next?

We're working on a free Gaming Peripherals MCU Database — here's why we built it.

Chipset selection for gaming mice and keyboards is surprisingly non-trivial. The same MCU category (ARM Cortex-M4, BLE 5.x) can mean wildly different polling rate support, USB architecture, power budget, and security capabilities depending on the vendor and specific series.

We've been maintaining an internal reference at Developex for years — every time we started a new gaming peripheral project, the first question was always "what MCUs are we comparing?" This spreadsheet was the answer.

Version 1.0 covers 70+ chipsets across mice and keyboard applications. Each entry: product type, use case, main features, functionality, datasheet link.

Launching on PH in a few days 🔥!!!

Would you find audio peripheral chipsets (headsets, speakers) useful as a v2 category? Trying to decide whether to expand or keep it focused on mice/keyboards.
