Hello geekhack!
Tim from Teal Technik here. Many might
not be aware of us but we are a tiny business in the
community for almost a year(tealtechnik.com). I am a day
time software developer nighttime keyboard enthusiast. Want
to see if we can bring a new option to the community.
This
is a preliminary IC for the following design. We wanted to
get feedback on our plans before moving forward with
prototyping.
The basic idea for the Teal 40Pad is a
fairly standard 40% Keyboard with a numpad, supporting split
RShift, split Space (3u), 6u space and split 0.
Layout:
The proposed PCB specs are:
Open Source - Designed by u/Gondolindrim
Underglow (no PKRGB at this time)
USB C
-
Indicator Lights (placed vertically between numpad and modifiers)
MX switch compatibility
ARM Processor
-
Solderable (no hotswap at this time)
Also including latest features provided by Gondos designs: Overcurrent and overvoltage protections
-
ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection on data lines
-
TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) on the bus voltage power feed
-
Isolation from MCU and bus power rails by means of a pi-filter
-
PCB will be open-sourced and released under the Acheron Project
For the case:
Sandwich case option -
PCB, Switch and base
Layered Acrylic case - Designed by u/Jolimon High profile
-
Stepped design - top 2 layers stepped inwards
Small 3 degree incline built in to case
Rounded corners
-
Color Options - clear, smoke, black, white, red
-
Optional 2mm foam dampening layers that go between the plate and the PCB
Possible 3rd option for a 3d printed case but we would have to probably choose between this and acrylic to keep it simple.
Other info: -
PCB design will start once initial IC is complete
Pricing target - at or under $200
US only
Estimated Dates
IC 1 - January 2020
Prototyping - Feb - Mar 2020
IC 2 - March 2020?
GB - TBD 2020
-
Shipping - TBD 2020?
