min34

A minimal split keyboard with 34 keys

Features

• 34 keys (inspired by Sweep)
• Support a hotswap switch both MX and Kailh low profile style (inspired by SofleKeyboard)
• Using seeed studio XIAO series microcontroller which means both wire and wireless are available
• Support a battery switch on/off if Bluetooth microcontroller is used
• The PCB is reversible
• No reset button (it's already on the microcontroller)

I don't focus on adding more features like an OLED display or a rotary encoder because I would like to keep it as simple as possible and I personally don't use them in my daily life (as a programmer).

Compnents

• 2x PCBs (for left and right)
• 2x seeed studio XIAO compatible boards.
• 34 switches of MX or Kailh low profile style
• 34 kailh switch sockets (MX or Kailh low profile)
• 34 diodes 1N4148W
• 34 keycaps
• (optional; only for battery support) 2x power switches (MSK 12C02)
• (optional; only for wire support) 2x TRRS connectors
