Fleny's Hackpad

Repo containing the files for my HackPad made for Blueprint by Hack Club.

It has a rotary encoder for volume, 4 keys for media control with an extra one for anything that might be useful and a OLED to show information about the media.

This is my first time doing any PCB and CAD work, so hopefully there isn't a mess

Questions

How big is the Hackpad PCB?

It measures 99 × 70 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Hackpad use?

14 parts, built around the SK6812MINI-E. 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 Hackpad KiCad files?

From the Fleny113/hackpad-blueprint repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/Hackpad.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/Hackpad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Hackpad design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Fleny113 before reusing the design.
