Finished wiring everything. Made copper fill zones. The nightmare is over!!. Now I uploaded the 3d files of the components to kicad and uploaded the keyboard to Onshape. Next steps are to design the case, and add something on the silkscreen for fun!

I finished wiring the columns and rows and started wiring the led chain. I’M SO DUMBBBB!!! I PUT THE LEDS IN THE WRONG ORDER SO I SPENT 1 HOUR REARANGING!!!!

I finished the placement of the parts and have started routing

So since this is going to be my first keyboard i’ve decided to ditch the bluetooth and battery idea. And i’ve started placing the capacitor for the sk6812 and the diode for the switches

I finished the wiring for the TP4056 and got the TPS2115APWR as a power switcher. I also got 84 sk6811-minie leds that im gonna put on the bottom sidw of the board

I wired up the RP2350B according to the RP2350 hardware design guide and finished wiring the TP4056 and figuring out how MOSFETs work to design a system to shut off battery power when usb is inserted.

So I’ve decided to use the RP2350B instead of the Pico 2 because then I have space for the usb connector without the keyboard getting too big and looking funny.

I wired up the pico 2W to a usbc connector (through the TP2, TP3 pins on the bottom of the pico) I also pulled the Ec11 and in the process of researching and wiring the TP4056 battery charger. The DNP is because I don’t know beforehand which side of the JST connector is GND and which is 4.2V, so I’m gonna leave 4 footprint and bridge them when I get the battery

I spent 3 hours on this to get Hackatime to not log my time:((. Any ways I wired up the keyboard matrix, designed the layout
