Working on a ground up design for a mechanical keyboard while I get my cancer treatment. There’s lots of projects that make this easier but I wanted a challenge and wanted to go from the ground up specifically.
Originally I picked a SiFive microcontroller but found that all of the ICs which mediate USB/JTAG/etc are hopelessly sold out. I switched over to a microchip based ARM chipset with built in USB. I’ll probably need to pick up a JTAG probe to do some debugging but that’s fine.
It’s been fun and very educational. I hope I get to finish it.
