StreamPad
About the StreamPad PCB
StreamPad is an open source PCB design by Pixeleyesd, published on GitHub under the GPL-3.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 82.6 × 99.7 mm, with 33 components from 3 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the MOUDLE-SEEEDUINO-XIAO. By type, the board carries 16 switches, 16 diodes and 1 IC.
It belongs with the keyboards and displays & leds designs in this gallery.
From the project
The StreamPad is an open source hackpad made for macros (designed for streaming).
The macropad is assembled by pressing heat-set inserts into the back of the top plate. Then, 16mm screws are inserted through the bottom of the base and the PCB, threading directly into the inserts to hold everything together.
You will need to flash the .uf2 provided in the Firmware folder in this repo to the Seeeduino XIAO. (Refer to help here: https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/XIAO-RP2040-with-CircuitPython/)
