Overview
ErgoSHIFT rgb is an open-source printed circuit board by mizma, from the mizma/ergoSHIFT repository on GitHub, published under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence. It is a 2-layer board of 233.2 × 147.7 mm with 84 parts on 72 nets, routed with 698 tracks and 637 vias.
It is built around the RP2040, W25Q128JVSIQ and TLV73333PDBV, with the SK6812-EC20 among its other parts. Its parts include 31 capacitors, 18 switches, 15 diodes, 9 resistors and 3 ICs. It belongs with the lEDs and displays boards and the RP2040 boards of this library.

README
README.mdergoSHIFT arcade controller
Low profile 11 button leverless arcade controller with Acrylic shell
This repository contains Acrylic cut design files, PCB design files and code needed to make an arcade controller that look like this:
Also, you can create custom artwork using the stencil provided in each hardware revision folder.
(*) Above sample Artwork based on an In-Game Screenshot + Official Fan-kit (©Cygames & ARK SYSTEM WORKS)
This controller is designed with the following concept:
- Create a reasonably compact and thin leverless arcade controller
- Layout 11 main buttons + 4 directional buttons to work with the latest Capcom Pro-Tour rule-set
- Shift the home position for the main button one column to the right to better utilize the more dextrous thumb and index finger instead of the little finger.
- Add the three additionally allowed buttons
- Make the button size compatible with Snackbox MICRO from Junkfood Arcades
- I could not find good Injection molded options other than this one.
- Make the design reversible for southpaw use.
- To assemble for left hand use, implement all buttons on the other side.
- Controller Circuit (Pro Micro or RP2040) must be implemented on the same side
- to compensate for the Controller Cicuitry being implemented in reverse, Acrylic layers will need to be stacked in a different order and thickness. Refer to each revision README for details
Resulting button mappings will look like this:
There are currently two revisions of the ergoSHIFT. It uses Kailh low profile (choc v1) mechanical keyboard switches. The table below lists their main features. See the README for each version for details on how to make them.

Questions
How big is the ErgoSHIFT rgb PCB?
It measures 233.2 × 147.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the ErgoSHIFT rgb use?
84 parts, built around the RP2040, W25Q128JVSIQ, TLV73333PDBV and SK6812-EC20. 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 ErgoSHIFT rgb KiCad files?
From the mizma/ergoSHIFT repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware-rgb/design_data/ergoSHIFT-rgb-kicad/ergoSHIFT-rgb/ergoSHIFT-rgb.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware-rev1/design_data/ergoSHIFT-rev1-kicad/ergoSHIFT-rev1-kicad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the ErgoSHIFT rgb 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).
