Been iterating a bit on my revxlp design, and a frequent request is for a 10u/"5 col" version.
Finally did a build of the first protos, and it's working great! I want to do a few tweaks for the newly added ability to use the single color LEDs for either per -key or bottom backlighting, once that's done I'll formally release the changes.
This particular build was half soldered by our elder daughter, and she fully assembled post-soldering including keycap selection. I love the look she chose, which she said "reminded her of a sunset over the water"
- 10u revxlp
- XIAO RP2040 running ZMK
- Keycaps:
- MBK: dyes from MKU and factory dyes from LowProKB
- Asymplex convex 1u artisans for the bottom row
- Choc whites
- MJF nylon case print from JLC
Just checking - files/parts/build guide is not yet available, or did I miss it somewhere?
10 work has been merged. I've got a bit more docs work to do on the new optional bottom facing single color LEDs, I would skip those for now.
Would you say 10u PCBs ready to order? Would order with jlcpcb assembly...
Yes. The PCB and pick and place files all look good. Does seem that JLC now doesn't have the threaded solder nuts in 2mm height for some reason, so you'd need to source those along w/ the hotswap socket, and any other parts they get grumpy about.
