Overview

Wyse mod pcb is an open-source printed circuit board by Sn3cor, from the Sn3cor/wyse-mod repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 2-layer board of 33.5 × 27.9 mm with 12 parts on 22 nets, routed with 22 tracks and 0 vias.

Its parts include 2 connectors, 1 IC and 1 switch. It belongs with the AVR (ATmega, ATtiny) boards of this library.

wyse-mod

This project makes converting Wyse keyboards (with 4P4C connector) easier to test, with the end goal of functioning as a standalone converter box. It is designed to work with Soarer's Wyse conversion software. I'll be trying to create something similar soon (to be at least compatible with Wyse PCE Keyboard).

Huge thanks to ErkHal and their Pohola Work's project for sparking the idea for this project.

Overview

The PCB features dedicated pads to solder wires straight from the keyboards connector pins for easy testing.

A Pro Micro microcontroller is mounted on the bottom of the board, with components facing the PCB. Also using a socket for an MCU is highly recommended. After veryfing that your Wyse keyboard works with the firmware, simply solder a 4P4C connector and plug in an old RJ9/RJ10/RJ22 (afaik they are all the same) roll-over (crossed) cable.

Questions

How big is the Wyse mod pcb PCB?

It measures 33.5 × 27.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Wyse mod pcb use?

12 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 Wyse mod pcb KiCad files?

From the Sn3cor/wyse-mod repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is wyse-mod-pcb/wyse-mod-pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic wyse-mod-pcb/wyse-mod-pcb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Wyse mod 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).
