Overview

Strannik is an open-source printed circuit board by wsb9, from the wsb9/strannik-hardware repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 2-layer board of 139 × 129 mm with 104 parts on 94 nets, routed with 897 tracks and 4 vias.

Its parts include 64 diodes, 33 switches and 2 connectors. It belongs with the keyboards and input boards of this library.

About

This project inspired by awesome ZSA Moonlander. At the time of start, ZSA guys haven't yet made Voyager, and I wanted very similar low profile wireless keyboard, so, this project had a great initial kick.

It currently uses Kailh Choc low profile switches, NiceNano as its brain and ZMK as firmware.

Current plan is to make project usable in daily use (instead of cardboard wired prototype).

Future plans

There's few ideas:

  • make even thinner keeb based on Kailh notebook switches
  • create version with large batteries and backlight
  • probably create version with encoder on the edge

Questions

How big is the Strannik PCB?

It measures 139 × 129 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Strannik use?

104 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 Strannik KiCad files?

From the wsb9/strannik-hardware repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is src/main/Strannik.kicad_pcb and its schematic src/main/Strannik.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Strannik 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).
