10u revxlp prototype build
10u revxlp prototype build
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
This is it - thx so much, let me know when you think it's ready and I am ready to build.

2 0 ReplyJust checking - files/parts/build guide is not yet available, or did I miss it somewhere?
2 0 Reply10 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.
3 0 ReplyJust fyi - bottom plate Gerber's for FR4 shows a 404 for me...
1 0 ReplyWould you say 10u PCBs ready to order? Would order with jlcpcb assembly...

It's in a branch of the repo until I can address one or two minor issues, and some docs additions needed.

It looks like it belongs on the TOS Enterprise set
2 0 ReplyI still would love to build it but jlcpcb shows these mounting holes as not available... any better idea than just trying again every week?
1 0 ReplyWhat kind of keymap do you use on here? I’m interested in learning a layout with less keys so I can have a travel board and lazy fingers 🙃
1 0 ReplyHere's a render of the keymap, you can see the file over at https://github.com/petejohanson/revxlp-config/blob/main/config/boards/shields/revxlp/revxlp.keymap
2 0 ReplyI'll post my personal keymap a bit later. It's mostly Callum style mod approach.

Looks very similar to the humla (barring the different MCU). Cool board!
1 0 ReplyIndeed! It was somewhat inevitable it was going to, but I still wanted to do it for the XIAO-ness of it.
