About the Keyboard PCB

Keyboard is an open source RP2040/RP2350 PCB design by adirock09, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 321 × 101 mm, with 128 components from 16 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the RaspberryPi_Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family. By type, the board carries 66 switches, 61 diodes and 1 module.

It belongs with the keyboards designs in this gallery.

From the project

I wanted to make a mecanical keyboard ,So i Choose a 60% layout Keyboard as it is compact and funtional enough. We will be using switch matrix wo we need less gpio pins

- Base on Raspberry pico - Has 61 keys ( 60% Keyboard Matrix)

Keyboard: common questions

What microcontroller does the Keyboard use?

The Keyboard is built around the RaspberryPi_Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Keyboard PCB?

The Keyboard measures 321 × 101 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Keyboard?

128 components, from 16 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Keyboard design files?

From the adirock09/Keyboard repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Keyboard design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with adirock09. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Keyboard without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug RP2040/RP2350 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
