Questions

How big is the Keyboard PCB?

It measures 304.8 × 133.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Keyboard use?

219 parts, built around the ATMEGA32A-PU. 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 Keyboard KiCad files?

From the mothdotmonster/OK96 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is keyboard.kicad_pcb and its schematic v0.2/ok96.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Keyboard 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).
