About the Mito PCB
Mito is an open source Nordic nRF PCB design by KOEGlike, published on GitHub under the GPL-3.0 license. It is a 4-layer board measuring 228 × 84.3 mm, with 260 components from 36 distinct parts.
Its main chip is the nRF52833_QDxx, from the Nordic nRF family. Other key parts include the USBLC6-2SC6, TXB0101DCK and BQ24075RGT. By type, the board carries 82 diodes, 80 capacitors, 46 switches, 26 resistors, 8 ICs and 4 transistors.
It belongs with the keyboards and iot & wireless designs in this gallery.
From the project
the pcb of a wireless, split, low-profile, hot-swap, mechanical keyboard with RGB, based on the nrf52833 SOC
Much thanks to pcbway for sponsoring this project, the video is in the making, stay tuned! The PCBs and stencil are very high quality!!

Mito: common questions
What microcontroller does the Mito use?
The Mito is built around the nRF52833_QDxx, from the Nordic nRF family.
How big is the Mito PCB?
The Mito measures 228 × 84.3 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6062 mm thick.
How many components are on the Mito?
260 components, from 36 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Mito design files?
From the KOEGlike/mito-pcb repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Mito design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which KOEGlike chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Mito 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.
