From the project
A small multi-PCB handheld keyboard for chording style input.
A small multi-PCB handheld keyboard for chording style input.
The main "brains" PCB, which accepts a nice!nano controller. It exposes connection points with Molex Pico EZMate connectors for 5 key PCBs, and a 3-pin Molex Pico EZMate connector for use with the power-reset daughterboard PCB. An untested IMU is also on the main PCB, for future use.
A small single key PCB with Molex Pico EZMate connector, Kailh hotswap socket, and mounting holes for possible assembly. One mounting hole "wing" is breakaway, as needed.
