Tklc v1 rgb: common questions

What microcontroller does the Tklc v1 rgb use?

The Tklc v1 rgb is built around the WeAct-RP2040-Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Tklc v1 rgb PCB?

The Tklc v1 rgb measures 328.6 × 142.9 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Tklc v1 rgb?

190 components, from 15 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Tklc v1 rgb design files?

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

Can I use the Tklc v1 rgb design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Tklc v1 rgb 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.
