Overview

Control is an open-source printed circuit board by jamessa, from the jamessa/Pragmatic repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 2-layer board of 41.9 × 34.9 mm with 7 parts on 22 nets, routed with 138 tracks and 3 vias.

Its parts include 2 connectors, 1 IC, 1 switch and 1 inductor. It belongs with the keyboards and input boards and the AVR (ATmega, ATtiny) boards of this library.

README

Pragmatic54/Choc/README.md

The Pragmatic56 keyboard features

  • 28 keys per hand with a fully symmetric double side design. One side is designed for the left hand and the other for the right.
  • Duplex Matrix to save pins.
  • 8-pin connector that utilizes a user-friendly 2x4 2.54mm PinHeader.
  • Support Kailh hotswap sockets.
  • A compact key arrangement with a 19mm x 18mm pitch and an 18mm vertical pitch that reduces fingers need to travel distance.

Current status: Validating.

Questions

How big is the Control PCB?

It measures 41.9 × 34.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Control use?

7 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 Control KiCad files?

From the jamessa/Pragmatic repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Archive/Pragmatic60/Control with Type C/Control.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Control 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).
