Overview

Cordillera is an open-source printed circuit board by coarse, from the coarse/Cordillera repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 337.2 × 122.6 mm with 209 parts on 192 nets, routed with 2,446 tracks and 66 vias.

It is built around the SRV05-4, XC6206P332MR and BAV70, with the SMF6.0CA among its other parts. Its parts include 77 resistors, 40 diodes, 12 capacitors, 3 ICs and 2 transistors. It belongs with the STM32 boards of this library.

About

The Cordillera PCB is an open design PCB heavily based on the Alice PCB. The only breaking change is the USB connector which renders it unusable on most Alice cases.

  • STM32F072 controller
  • USB C connector mounted at the top
  • ESD, over voltage, and over current protection circuits
  • Dual common cathode diodes instead of single ones
  • Backlight, single color
  • Fancy "press to reset, hold for bootloader" reset circuit

Dependencies

Symbols and footprints used are from my KiCad library

Notes

  • Original Alice uses USB Mini, so this PCB may be incompatible with some Alice cases

I provide this design as a reference for designing similar keyboard layout PCBs. Using them within your projects will require a will to do research of one's own and to learn the workings of them, potentially fixing issues if they exist.

I present the design as-is and as-available, without liability and without any guarantees regarding functionality, as expressed in the license.

Questions

How big is the Cordillera PCB?

It measures 337.2 × 122.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Cordillera use?

209 parts, built around the SRV05-4, XC6206P332MR, BAV70 and SMF6.0CA. 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 Cordillera KiCad files?

From the coarse/Cordillera repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Cordillera.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Cordillera design in my own project?

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