obob's wasdpad

This is my submission to hackpad (v5?) It has 6 switches, rgb, an OLED display and 3 different layers, WASD mode, arrow key mode and media (changing layers and volume eg)

Features

  • 8 Neopixels
  • A 0.91 inch OLED screen
  • 6 Cherry MX Switches
  • KMK firmware with layers and support for neopixels and the oled

Questions

How big is the Wasdpad PCB?

It measures 64.2 × 61.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Wasdpad use?

26 parts, built around the SK6812MINI-E. 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 Wasdpad KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Wasdpad design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
