Overview
I found the hackpad guide on accident and thought it was really cool, so I wanted to make my own. Once I saw I could get rewards from building my own hackpad, it was a no-brainer. It has 3 buttons and an OLED screen, and I built it to be extremely compact. I can't wait to get the kit!
Features
- OLED display
- 3 Cherry MX switches
- Xiao RP2040 microcontroller
- Sleek 3D printed case
Build Steps
- Print the case and order all the parts.
- Solder the microcontroller, OLED, and buttons onto the PCB.
- Place the PCB into the 3D printed case and screw the case lid on.
- Flash the code and enjoy!
Firmware
- Language: KMK python / CircuitPython
- Notes: The CircuitPython code is simple and easy to flash. One key is bound to CMD+C, the second to CMD+V, and the third to CMD+A.
Firmware files are in the firmware/ folder.
Hardware
PCB design files are in the hardware/ folder, and 3D-printable case files are in the enclosure/ folder.
See BOM.csv for the full bill of materials.

Questions
How big is the Stardance hackpad PCB?
It measures 60.5 × 44.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Stardance hackpad use?
5 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Stardance hackpad KiCad files?
From the Anycircle11139s/hole-hackpad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Hardware/Stardance hackpad.kicad_pcb and its schematic Hardware/Stardance hackpad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Stardance hackpad design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
