This 60% keyboard that uses BluePill or STM32F103C8T6.This is my first board, Any feedback is appreciated. Contact me on Discord Ikta#8871.

Firmware

Firmware is currently waiting for merge to QMK Firmware Repository, but you can still access it from my fork

Update

Modified the pinout diagram so that it doesn't crash with Black Pill or STM32F4xxx line of board, the pinout obviously will be different, but because all uses the a valid pin even with Black Pill / Blue Pill configuration, pin matrix diagram can be modified in firmware level.

Caution

You might need to use a jumper for a more reliable connector in the caps/control key. I guess the pad is a bit too small for it to keep holding on with constant pressure of being pressed hard.

Questions

How big is the Pill60 PCB?

It measures 292.7 × 123.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Pill60 use?

164 parts, built around the 1N4148W and SK6812MINI-E. 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 Pill60 KiCad files?

From the IktaS/Pill60 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Pill60.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Pill60 design in my own project?

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