65-percent keyboard: common questions

What microcontroller does the 65-percent keyboard use?

The 65-percent keyboard is built around the RaspberryPi_Pico_W, from the Raspberry Pi family.

How big is the 65-percent keyboard PCB?

The 65-percent keyboard measures 316 × 133.1 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the 65-percent keyboard?

152 components, from 24 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 65-percent keyboard design files?

From the jeffmc6767/65-percent-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 65-percent keyboard design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with jeffmc6767. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the 65-percent keyboard without the hardware?

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