PCB for HandWired Keyboards

Hope you like it! was a hard work do it! 

Do you know I have a twitter account?
I'm trying to push this project up sharing a lot of content about it on twitter,  some time lapse videos, fotos and new PCB & 3D designs.

Thanks! 

HI all,
today arrived the last design of the tiny PCB for handwired keyboards.

As I anticipated days ago, new PCB bring us the possibility of solder the led in two ways, inverting the direction of the data pins. Now, wire the lED, will be easier (I hope) for all of you. 

Once you solder the LED you have to mark the white square (to know whats the direction of this PCB)

Hi all!

I've looking around aliexpress and founded these switches:

These switches have a more compact size, with shorter total travel, I've write the footprint for these switches:

I'll upload the PCB version of my project for this footprint

Hi all, just finished wiring and programming of my numpad keyboard using the same PCB used at the dactyl manuform keyboard, hope you like it!

Hi all,
I've designed a new PCB to improve some features:
1.- Added 2 gaps for mechanical support for some switches

2.- Connector pads are now through hole, are smaller too, but is necessary to add the to gaps described before.

3.- now you can mount the sk6812 4020 twisted 180º too, so it swap the direction pin:

Now there isn't DIN or DOUT silkscreen to indicate the data direction, when you solder the led you set de direction pin too.

I also build a numpad to show you how PCBs can fit in any form factor keyboard.

These PCBs can be used to build macro-keyboards with under glow keys too!

PCB desing, it fits into more difficult places inside the dactyl manuform
