Brief introduction

 BIGTREETECH SKR Mini E3 v2.0 is a customized motherboard for Ender3, which is launched by the 3D printing team of Shenzhen Bigtree Technology Co.,Ltd which perfectly replaces the original Ender3 printer motherboard.

The stock board of Ender3 is ATMega12849 of 8-bit AVR, and the built-in Marlin 2.0 firmware occupies a lot of memory, which makes some functions unavailable to users because of insufficient remaining memory.  BIGTREETECH SKR Mini E3 v2.0 is a 32-bit motherboard with ARM Cortex-M3 series chips, which can easily solve these problems and greatly improve the performance of Ender3.
