Dumbpad

16-key macropad with rotary encoder. Open-source design by imchipwood

Built 2020-08-13


Switching gears to something smaller, we have the Dumbpad by imchipwood. I ran a small group buy of his v1.1 edition design, featuring multiple layout options that allowed for 1, 2 or no rotary encoders in addition to the 4x4 switch grid.

The board was powered off a Arduino Pro-Micro with QMK, and uses simple through hole components, most of which are familiar if you've ever seen the Discipline 65.

PCB came with a nice texture on it

All you need for this build. Surprisingly simple.
