VibeDeck github has been imroved firmware has been added . the fin al rendeer image with the components has been added yeah do checkout. my excitement has been dying its 10 days since i started thiss
VibeDeck finally completed ig wrote the firmware uploaded the production and all other files . firmware didnt get recoreded in hackatine it got into a different project 😭😭. do check it out guyss
VibeDeck update i have removed the oled and the rotatory encoder feature i didnt wanna make it complex. added SK6812 MINI RGB. i have updated the CAD and PCB. This projects CAD is used and redesigned from the benGreenberg07s repository.
Today I finished the main PCB design and routing for VibeDeck.
I also started designing the enclosure in FreeCAD and made the top and bottom parts. The 9 key openings are already cut.
Still need to add the OLED, encoder and USB-C openings, then firmware, Gerbers and final documentation.
VibeDeck PCB routing completed The board has a 3×3 mechanical-key matrix, 9× 1N4148 diodes, XIAO RP2040, EC11 rotary encoder and a 0.91” OLED header.I also ran kicad’s drc and got 0 errors and 0 unconnected items. this is my first proper PCB design, so getting to this point feels pretty damn good lol.
Next is the case design ,manufacturing files and firmware.
VibeDeck - Completed the Shematics and assiging footprints. Today i started building VibeDeck , my first custom programmable macropad.I designed the schematics in kicad and finished the electrical connections. i also assigned the pcb footprints for the switch, diodes,OLED header and the XIAO. Next ill do the pcb and other things its my first time doing these
