The Vonreg is an attempt at exploiting 3 dimensions with just pcb. (vertical thumb cluster)

N.B: Although this board works fine, its a bit difficult to use, since it will slide around, due to only 2 edges touching the table.

To build it you need to order pcbs, check out the releases.

You will also need the following parts: 2 x Blackpill MCU 2 x TRRS Jack 36 x MX switches and keycaps 4 x 2.54mm Double Row Right angle Male Breakaway PCB Board Pin Header Connector(2x5 pins) 1 x USB C cable 1 x TRRS cable (only need 3 poles)

Optional: 1 x Buzzer (4mm between pins)

Questions

How big is the Vonreg top PCB?

It measures 110 × 81.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Vonreg top use?

22 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 Vonreg top KiCad files?

From the tompi/vonreg repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is top/vonreg_top.kicad_pcb and its schematic bottom/vonreg_bottom.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Vonreg top design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask tompi before reusing the design.
