finished a huge chunk of my hackpad today!! i also finished the schematic earlier, where i wired the 10-key switch matrix with diodes, connected the XIAO, OLED, and RGB LED, and set up all the row/column pins before moving everything into the PCB layout. sadly i didn’t get a timelapse of that part 😭
then i moved everything into the pcb editor, placed all the components, routed the connections, fixed a bunch of DRC issues, checked the board in the 3D viewer, and exported the Gerber + drill files. i got stuck a few times with the routing, but i finally got it to 0 errors and 0 unrouted connections.
