Keyboard: common questions

What microcontroller does the Keyboard use?

The Keyboard is built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1U-N16, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Keyboard PCB?

The Keyboard measures 323.9 × 131 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Keyboard?

169 components, from 13 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 design files?

From the vamshikrishnaramasamy/oso-keyboard repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Keyboard design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which vamshikrishnaramasamy chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Keyboard 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.
