Overview
U10e.kicad pcb.preroute is an open-source printed circuit board by BigTuna94, from the BigTuna94/u10e repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 2-layer board of 151 × 115 mm with 65 parts on 50 nets.
Its parts include 28 switches, 27 diodes, 1 IC and 1 connector. It belongs with the keyboards and input boards and the AVR (ATmega, ATtiny) boards of this library.
README
README.mdμ10e
The μ10e, pronounced Mutiny, is another take on a DIY ergonomic ortholinear with column stagger split keyboard inspired by such boards as the ErgoDox, Crkbd, Splitreus62, and even the Planck and Boardwalk.

Current PCB Design
Goals
The initial inspiration for this board was a Crkbd with 1.5U modifiers, a number row, and Kailh Choc sockets. However, after seeing designs like the Lily58, I've decided it would be even better to support both Choc and MX sockets on the same pcb.
Although the first revision of this board will use a socketed Pro Micro footprint MCU per side, the overall goal of this project is something a little more sofisticated.
Roadmap
- Create initial schematic and pcb design using pro micro
- Gather feedback from community
Potential Future Features
- Encoder footprint below controller
- Move TRRS footprint
- OLED footprint below contoller
- Built in MCU
- The nice!nano and other new USB-C boards are really good right now.
- Even though I like this idea, I'll see if there is community interest

Questions
How big is the U10e.kicad pcb.preroute PCB?
It measures 151 × 115 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the U10e.kicad pcb.preroute use?
65 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 U10e.kicad pcb.preroute KiCad files?
From the BigTuna94/u10e repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/u10e.kicad_pcb.preroute.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the U10e.kicad pcb.preroute 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).
