WARNING

This project is a personal project, i just built one prototype. It's not considered complete, nor tested or error-free.

I won't develop this much, just releasing it as-is for anybody knowledgable picking up and maybe building upon it.

It is NOT ready to take the files and produce a working keyboard!

Questions

How big is the Atari PCB?

It measures 228 × 85.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Atari use?

180 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 Atari KiCad files?

From the Tschibo00/zmk repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is atari/pcb/v2/atari.kicad_pcb and its schematic atari/pcb/v1/atari.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Atari 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).
