# SOL keyboard
# SOL keyboard with built-in encoder
This keyboard with integrated encoder replicates the keyboard on the SOL-20.
This keyboard has a sibling Sol-20 keyboard without integrated
encoder [(here)](../keyboard-sol). The two keyboards are identical except for the following difference:
1. This integrated version places the connector closer to the main board keyboard
socket, so the original cable fits more easily.
1. The non-integrated version requires a piggy-back encoder board. When
installing in a Sol-20, this piggyback board must be mounted on the right
side of the keyboard, and connected with a cable, to avoid mechanical
interference from the Sol main board.
1. The piggy-back encoder permits use with other machines, via the Apple-1 and
Apple-2 sockets, and two different user-configurable headers.
1. The piggy-back encoder also includes a UART interface.
The keyboard is designed using KiCad in order to be the most useful for anybody
wishing to modify the keyboard for more specific uses, or to add to the project.
