TheBindingOfMacropads

A 6-key macropad with a rotary encoder and a 0.91" OLED display, built around a Seeed XIAO RP2040. Made as part of the Hack Club Hackpad, for the Stardance YSWS program.

Features:

  • 6 macro keys, arrow-key style layout
  • EC11-style rotary encoder — volume control, click to mute, etc.
  • 0.91" 128x32 OLED display (I2C)
  • QMK firmware
  • VIAL Support
  • OLED support
  • Different presets (Discord, The binding of isaac, spotify, OBS, snake, timer and flappy bird.
  • Konami code (up up down down left right left right), long press rotary encoder to see credits.
  • Small tboi themed icons, isaac will sleep after a minute of inactivity.

Why did i make this?

I have a 60% keyboard, so i cant use WASD and arrows together, so i made this board so i could play the binding of isaac!

Questions

How big is the TheBindingOfMacroPads PCB?

It measures 100 × 80 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the TheBindingOfMacroPads use?

12 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 TheBindingOfMacroPads KiCad files?

From the EmanuelKrabNL/TheBindingOfMacroPads repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Pcb/TheBindingOfMacropads.kicad_pcb and its schematic Pcb/TheBindingOfMacropads.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the TheBindingOfMacroPads 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).
