Overview

Teensy macro pad is an open-source printed circuit board by HarryCutts, from the HarryCutts/twentypad repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 79 × 122.4 mm with 54 parts on 41 nets, routed with 369 tracks and 23 vias.

It is built around the ATMEGA32U4-AU. Its parts include 20 switches, 9 capacitors, 7 resistors, 3 connectors and 2 diodes. It belongs with the keyboards and input boards and the AVR (ATmega, ATtiny) boards of this library.

TwentyPad

TwentyPad is a simple twenty-key macro pad, that I built to learn about PCB design. See my blog post for more details.

Questions

How big is the Teensy macro pad PCB?

It measures 79 × 122.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Teensy macro pad use?

54 parts, built around the ATMEGA32U4-AU. 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 Teensy macro pad KiCad files?

From the HarryCutts/twentypad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Teensy macro pad.kicad_pcb and its schematic Teensy macro pad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Teensy macro pad design in my own project?

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