Journal

The journal is in JOURNAL.md

A brief summery of the journal:

How it all started

I was on a meeting with hack club hackers, and I was so impressed that I decided to join them and make this thing.

What will it do?

It's basically a small keyboard, I designed it for osu, with zxc keys and some moving button, and also a switch mode button to make it expandable.

Questions

How big is the OsuPad PCB?

It measures 66 × 81 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the OsuPad use?

11 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 OsuPad KiCad files?

From the KnowScratcher/osuPad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/osuPad/osuPad.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/osuPad/osuPad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the OsuPad design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
