Questions
How big is the Glyph PCB?
It measures 313.9 × 94.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Glyph use?
162 parts, built around the AMS1117-3.3. 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 Glyph KiCad files?
From the ixmachine/glyphkbd repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is v2/PCB/glyph.kicad_pcb and its schematic v2/PCB/glyph-matrix.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Glyph design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ixmachine before reusing the design.
