How can I build it?

Required Libraries:

  • ADAFRUIT_SSD1306
  • Adafruit BusIO
  • Adafruit GFX Library
  • Adafruit Neopixel
  • Keypad by Mark Stanley and Alexander Brevig
  • NimBLE-Arduino
  • Rotary Encoder by Matthias Hertel

All you need to do is solder the Capacitors, Display, TP4056 Module, Battery, Diodes, Switches, Rotary Encoder, and LEDs onto the PCB, 3D Print the case and use a soldering iron to push the heat set inserts into place (M2.5 screws intentionally dont have heat set inserts), compile and upload the macropad.ino file onto the ESP32, and you should be good to go! By default the macropad uses F13-F24, which you can reprogram to do various things in your operating system of choice :D

Questions

How big is the KiCAD Project PCB?

It measures 85 × 99 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the KiCAD Project use?

54 parts, built around the WS2812B. 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 KiCAD Project KiCad files?

From the CloudsAreCloudy/GummyPad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/KiCAD Project/KiCAD Project.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/KiCAD Project/KiCAD Project.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the KiCAD Project design in my own project?

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