Keyboard pico: common questions

What microcontroller does the Keyboard pico use?

The Keyboard pico is built around the RaspberryPi_Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Keyboard pico PCB?

The Keyboard pico measures 92.5 × 62 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Keyboard pico?

19 components, from 3 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 Keyboard pico design files?

From the NoamanKhalil/Keyboard-pico 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 Keyboard pico design in my own project?

It is published under CC-BY-NC-4.0, which limits how it may be reused; read the license before building on it.

Can I test firmware for the Keyboard pico 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.
