- Offset cherry MX pads and aligners downward 0.004" from origin
- Offset futaba pads and aligners upward -0.004" from origin
- Update footprints in classic and sol-20 pcbs and aligners
- adjust mounting slots in Sol-20 aligners to match futaba or cherry offset
- in combined CherryMX/futaba footprints, moved cherry pads down 1 mil and
futaba pads up 2 mil, to reduce risk of shortin of LED pads with futaba pad.
Adjusted all aligners accordingly
- Fixed centroid for combined diode footprint and adjusted PCB placement on
classic and SOL keyboards accordingly.
- Moved SMT pads in combined diode footprint to top layer, so pick & place file
will be usable.
- changes to futaba stabilizer design. Longer post adapter passes through slots
in keyboard and aligner.
- Changed futaba post thickness gauge from board outline to a slot to improve
tolerance.
- Moved spacebar stabilizer bending guide to edge of PCB, in order to make it
more useful in bending PCBs.
- Changed Apple II mounting slots on classic keyboard from horizontal to
vertical orientation, to accommodate the different spacing offets due to the use
of spacers in angled mounting threads.
- Moved header slightly forward
- Moved interface mount holes do reduce interference with case mount holes
- For all keys in classic keyboard, add option for either through-hole or SMT
diodes and resistors.
- Adjust upper right corner circular cutout for AppleII+ case fit.
- Adjust OSI mounting hole pattern for improved fit.
- Changed OSI mount holes along top of keyboard to slots, to fit both C2P (542
keyboard) and C4P (542 Rev B/c keyboards).
- PCB and aligners must be slightly taller to accommodate the slots along the
top row
- remove material from PCB to allow keyboard to fit in Apple II case
- enlarge center hole on cherry MX footprints slightly, to 0.160" to allow
slightly more tolerance, which eases assembly.
- include holes for LEDs on futaba aligner
- include extra pads on main PCB for LEDs with futaba keys
- Add LED on LINE FEED which maps to REPEAT/CAPSLOCK on Apple II keymap
For better matching of current limit resistors to LEDs, the resistors are moved
to the keyboard matrix PCB, where they can be tuned for maximum brightness (at
100% duty cycle). This allows consistent keyboard brightness when a single
interface PCB is swapped between keyboard matrices.
This allows the keymap to determine which LED is used, rather than requiring the
decision to be hardwired in at the time of assembly. For the OSI keyboard, the
LED could be placed on the SHIFTLOCK key, at the far right LED, or in the
CAPSLOCK position, which is just to the left of the RETURN and not otherwise
populated in the OSI layout.
- pulled in the right border and mounting holes for Apple-II mounting dimensions
- modified the "~^" key courtyard to allow closer positioning of the upper right
Apple II Mounting hole. (The ~^ key is not installed in an Apple II keyboard)
- Moved tracks and diodes as needed to keep everything in the new outline.
- Add extra key to the left side of row 4 to permit "inverted T" for those who
want it.
- Tiny shifts of several keys to correct key distances
- Include mounting holes with daughter board connector, to ensure consistency.
- Add apple 2 mounting slots (and stretch PCB to accommodate slots
- Add pass-through holes in aligners for OSI keyboard spacers
- Move 'ESC' key next to '1' key
- Add TAB key next to Q key
- remove 'here is' and finalize "helper" keys along left side of keyboard
- move legends off of PCB traces
- update to release 1.3
The "0" and "O" keys were swapped on the PCB, requiring a keymap fix for the
ASCII adapter. The swapped keys would not be an issue for a keyscanning ASCII
converter, but would preclude use in OSI systems, so this fix puts the keys
back in position compatible with OSI.
- Add OSI-compatible mounting holes.
- Adjust keyboard and aligner holes to make room for the OSI mounting holes
- Change "Universal Keyboard" to "Unified Keyboard" in the design files.
