Overview
Dpedal pcb is an open-source printed circuit board by rukai, from the rukai/dpedal repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 2-layer board of 126.5 × 55.5 mm with 7 parts on 27 nets, routed with 22 tracks and 5 vias.
It belongs with the RP2040 boards of this library.
README
readme.mdDPedal
A large foot controlled DPad. It is built around a raspberry pi Pico and connects to your PC over usb to send user configurable HID keyboard and mouse events.
You can build your own from this design if you are comfortable with 3d printing, ordering PCB's from a manufacturer and some soldering.
To build your own dpedal follow the instructions here.
This repo contains the source for:
- The firmware
- The flashing tool
- The PCB
The 3D printed parts are not in this repo, instead they are in onshape.
Changes from DPedal v2
- smaller height
- foot is less raised off the ground
- easier to take with you
- make buttons recessed into shell, protect them from snapping off
- 2 buttons instead of 4, I rarely use the buttons, I think having less buttons will make it easier to hit the right one.
- web-based flashing tool
- RP2040 instead of an STM32 chip

Questions
How big is the Dpedal pcb PCB?
It measures 126.5 × 55.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1 mm thick.
What parts does the Dpedal pcb use?
7 parts. 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 Dpedal pcb KiCad files?
From the rukai/dpedal repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/dpedal_pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/dpedal_pcb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Dpedal pcb 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).
