About the Totem 0 3 PCB

Totem 0 3 is an open source Nordic nRF PCB design by DhruvBhatia0, published on GitHub under the CERN-OHL-P-2.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 258.8 × 94.4 mm, with 85 components from 8 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the xiao-ble, from the Nordic nRF family. By type, the board carries 2 ICs and 2 connectors.

It belongs with the keyboards and iot & wireless designs in this gallery.

From the project

Five-column TOTEM TrackPoint keyboard with hot-swap Choc keys, underside RGB, and acrylic enclosure

- download the ZIP file - upload the ZIP file to the website of the manufacturer. - sometimes the Gerber preview from JLCPCB can't display the PCB, even when the files are fine. In this case use these dimensions: 258.7mm * 94.35mm - PCB Thickness 1.6mm - 2 layers - PCB Qty as much as you like. One PCB is a full keyboard. - PCB Color Black (or any other color you like) - No impedance control - Surface Finish HASL(with lead) if you want the easiest soldering experience or LeadFree HASL. - Remove Order Number Yes

Totem 0 3: common questions

What microcontroller does the Totem 0 3 use?

The Totem 0 3 is built around the xiao-ble, from the Nordic nRF family.

How big is the Totem 0 3 PCB?

The Totem 0 3 measures 258.8 × 94.4 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Totem 0 3?

85 components, from 8 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 Totem 0 3 design files?

From the DhruvBhatia0/BlueBird 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 Totem 0 3 design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its CERN-OHL-P-2.0 license, which DhruvBhatia0 chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Totem 0 3 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.
