Questions
How big is the 60 percent keyboard PCB?
It measures 233.8 × 81.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the 60 percent keyboard use?
100 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 60 percent keyboard KiCad files?
From the ishaan-tam/CustomOrthoKeyboard repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Hardware/60_percent_keyboard.kicad_pcb and its schematic Hardware/60_percent_keyboard.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the 60 percent keyboard design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ishaan-tam before reusing the design.
