Right Split Keyboard: common questions
What microcontroller does the Right Split Keyboard use?
The Right Split Keyboard is built around the XIAO-nRF52840-SMD, from the Nordic nRF family.
How big is the Right Split Keyboard PCB?
The Right Split Keyboard measures 99.3 × 97.7 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Right Split Keyboard?
37 components, from 7 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 Right Split Keyboard design files?
From the Ari-Hetti/Split-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 Right Split Keyboard design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which Ari-Hetti chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Right Split Keyboard without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug Nordic nRF firmware against it before you order a PCB.
