i there need deleate all and change all pins by non changing schmeat to one pin conectors
its not be hard but it take so long

like no leds version is for poeple who no need it. and for me personal soldring leds complicated this project i think about change diods

Complication

14 days left to end of blueprint so i will use rp 2040. ehh i spend over 10h on mcu what i dont use. but by this change project cost so much less. ehh i dont say i lost that time. i teach so much at making mcu motherboard. i save it schmeat for another project later

its photo how it look like but i dont use it . i very sorry :(

Motherboard Prototype - V1

obraz

i make first prototype of mcu motherboard i can say its look bad for me personal i dont wanna use this for end version becus i wanna add something what i dont have it make this all take me around 40minut becus i be testing diffrent conections

start a battery system power

i start making battery power system with this

clear 5v go to battery but after battery it cant back to it
im ending this at that moment im upgrade that later

sry but batteri managmante its complicated

around 1h i speend only to reserching power is good :<

this adj its sensor what checking its a 3.3v

PriXy PriXy added to the journal ago

idk what its this

reset this repeir to keyboard dont reseting non stop

i make same for 3.3v mcu
i like this :)

i start making keyboard mcu first i do conections to switch pcb base on conections what i made on keyboard pcb and schemat
bla bla bla its neeeed bee filled

routing a pcb of keyboard

obraz

i do first conection on all swtich

obraz

now i conect swtich to diods

i make mistake and i need make new versio

obraz

i do agein conectins from swtich do diods

obraz

i make conection swtich_matrix to pins

obraz

i make conections to row gnd from swtich to matrix

keyboard footprint - switch

obraz
half of this ready

look good its take me around 20minus idk its me 0.4h i dont know

im after half of keyboard ehh next 30 minuts

obraz

i think i will end all in around 1h

now diods ehhhh
8 minuts later i end that

footprint segregate

i segregate footprint becuse its be easy connect later

i only dont give diod becuse its small so its be hard to segragete now.

sorry i give old photo what look like befor segregate

footprint and some changes

i set footprint and i give change something in schematic.

Zrzut ekranu 2026-02-11 191912

i use

cherry mx swithc footprint

diode smd

1x25 1.00mm pin coneector

i need change only resistor and led. i think i to need do some bigger diode

uh i add 4 more sw_push only for stabilizer
