Devlog 7

Ready to submit!
I finished the firmware, and I’m ready to submit.
I also decided to add some diodes to the PCB for each key. So I had to change a lot, including the case.
But I am done now and everything is set up in my Github repository for submiting.

Made the basic firware for the hackpad.
Started to make the firmware in VSCode. So far I have made a version with just the keys coded.
Still need to add the LEDs and OLED screen.

Finished the case.
Made a simple case for then PCB to sit in. Added a cutout for the USB, OLED screen and the keys.
Might still add a design or something in the top right above the microcontroller.
Need to code firmware now.

Big update.
I’m now fully done with the PCB!
I added LEDs, and and OLED screen. Finished wiring everything too. Hopefully I just need to code firmware now and design the case.

Made my PCB
Made my PCB following the guide but then I decided to change it to be my own.
So I scrapped everything and started again. I added 9 keys and wired it all. I left space for an OLED screen or something on the top left, that I’m going to add later.

Worked on the cad part of my hackpad.
I made the case for the hackpad using Onshape.
I know that I have to make it my own, but I’m just following the guide for now, and I’m going to change stuff later.

Finished schematic and imports.
This is the start of me making my very own hack pad!
I imported the care package and installed KiCad, Lapse, and lookout, so everything is working smoothly now.
I had some trouble with the default KiCad files but I managed to import all of them manually.
Going to start working on the PCB now!
