Overview
Form uno is an open-source printed circuit board by phamfoo, from the phamfoo/form-uno repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 2-layer board of 272.4 × 122.9 mm with 123 parts on 83 nets, routed with 331 tracks and 12 vias.
It is built around the RP2040-ZERO. Its parts include 62 switches, 60 diodes and 1 IC. It belongs with the keyboards and input boards and the RP2040 boards of this library.

Introduction
I designed this board with a few goals in mind:
Ergonomic
The layout is based on the corne/cornelius by foostan, with some adjustments:
- Unsplit.
- Number row.
- Options for dedicated arrow keys.
Fully featured
It also comes with the neat features that you'd find in custom mechanical keyboards:
- Gasket-mounted.
- Hotswap PCB + daughterboard.
- Clean and minimal design.
Easy to build
- Powered by an RP2040 Tiny and all the other parts can be easily sourced.
- No tiny SMD components required!

Questions
How big is the Form uno PCB?
It measures 272.4 × 122.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Form uno use?
123 parts, built around the RP2040-ZERO. 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 Form uno KiCad files?
From the phamfoo/form-uno repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is src/pcb/form-uno/form-uno.kicad_pcb and its schematic src/pcb/form-uno/form-uno.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Form uno 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).
