Kailh Choc V1 (aka PG1350) low profile switches ortho keyboard, includes PCB and CNC/3DP case, inspired by ARTSEY, Home row mods and Preonic/Planck keyboard.

The keycap in the above picture is from Keychron K1 v2.

Note

Gerber, BOM and CPL files are generated by KiCad JLCPCB Tools plugin.

I use KiCAD KLE Placer plugin to automatically place switch footprints.

If key-switches.pretty folder is empty, use git submodule update --init to clone submodule.

Questions

How big is the Calcite60 PCB?

It measures 226 × 94.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Calcite60 use?

196 parts, built around the E73-2G4M08S1C, RT9013-33GB, SRV05-4 and TP4054. 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 Calcite60 KiCad files?

From the siderakb/calcite repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Calcite60/pcb/Calcite60.kicad_pcb and its schematic Calcite52/pcb/Calcite52.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Calcite60 design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CERN-OHL-P-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).
