About the Vecdec PCB

Vecdec is an open source PCB design by svenscore, published on GitHub under the CC-BY-NC-4.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 9.5 × 12.9 mm, with 2 components from 2 distinct parts.

It belongs with the keyboards, rf & radio and dev boards & breakouts designs in this gallery.

The vecdec is a versatile ergonomic computing device built in the style of a cyberdeck around a split ergonomic mechanical keyboard. It was created because a laptop with this split keyboard or any split keyboard, did not exist. The vecdec in computing form uses relatively low pow

The vecdec is a versatile ergonomic computing device built in the style of a cyberdeck around a split ergonomic mechanical keyboard. It was created because a laptop with this split keyboard or any split keyboard, did not exist. The vecdec in computing form uses relatively low power and is easily expandable with areas for mounting breakout boards internally and SAO ports externally. It can also be used as an external keyboard.
