A Keyboard matrix PCB for prototyping new keyboard ideas.
Protomatrix is an open-source printed circuit board by SpikedSynapse, from the SpikedSynapse/Protomatrix repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 2-layer board of 359.6 × 142.1 mm with 141 parts on 90 nets, routed with 1,878 tracks and 10 vias.
Its parts include 70 diodes and 1 connector. It belongs with the keyboards and input and lEDs and displays boards of this library.
A Keyboard matrix PCB for prototyping new keyboard ideas.
The concept of this project is to create keyboard prototyping PCB. This a very simple matrix that includes diodes only. Each trace ends in a pinout that can be connected to a breadboard. This first version is set up as a FRL/TKL. I wanted enough keys for things to feel complete, and still work on a Pro-Micro. Of Course this is meant to work with any prototyping system, but Pro-Micros are cheap.
As of right now this PCB is untested. I am awaiting prototypes and I will update this when i have tested them.

It measures 359.6 × 142.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
141 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.
From the SpikedSynapse/Protomatrix repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Protomatrix/Protomatrix.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
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).
