Questions

What parts does the Raven Keyboard use?

91 parts, built around the MCP73831 and 1N4148W. 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 Raven Keyboard KiCad files?

From the Nova38/raven_wing repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is V1/kicad/Raven_Keyboard.kicad_pcb and its schematic V1/kicad/KeyMatrix.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Raven Keyboard 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).
