ErgoDox keyboard yog kev sib cais, cov tshuab siv tau thiab cov keyboard tuaj yeem siv tau. Nws tau qhib-qhov puv nkaus, yog li txhua yam koj xav tau los tsim nws yog yuav cov khoom thiab mob siab rau lub sijhawm.

Kuv ua haujlwm ua software engineer thiab kuv ib txwm nrhiav txoj hauv kev los txhim kho kuv cov khoom tsim tau thiab ua rau kuv ntaus ntawv yooj yim dua. Kuv yeej tau hnov thawj zaug txog qhov no thaum "ErgoDox EZ" kickstarter project tawm los. Kuv tau txaus siab, tab sis tsis xav siv ~ $ 300 rau cov keyboard, thiab kuv xav tias nws tuaj yeem yog qhov haujlwm zoo tiag tiag los tsim ntawm kuv tus kheej.

Nws yog thawj zaug rau kuv siv lub tshuab txiav laser, yog li ntawd lom zem heev.:)

Tom qab ob peb lub lis piam ntawm kev siv nws, Kuv yuav luag muab - ua tiag muab rau ib pliag, tab sis tom qab ntawd txiav txim siab muab nws mus ntxiv, thiab tam sim no kuv nyiam nws! Kev kawm nkhaus yog qhov ntxhab ntxhab thiab uas tuaj yeem ua rau muaj kev ntxhov siab tiag tiag, tab sis thaum koj tau siv nws, koj yuav nyiam nws!

Kuv pom zoo kom koj xub nyeem tag nrho cov lus qhia, thiab saib tag nrho cov duab. Xyuas kom koj muaj txhua daim thiab nkag siab tias koj yuav tsum ua dab tsi. Nws yuav pab koj raws txoj kev

(Yog tias koj tab tom nrhiav cov vis dis aus ntawm ib tus neeg tsim cov keyboard tib yam, yog li koj tuaj yeem pom qhov ua tiav cov kauj ruam, tom qab ntawd saib qhov no. Kuv siv nws, thiab nws tau pab kuv ntau)

Kauj Ruam 1: Sib Sau Ua Ke

Cov keyboard tau tsim los ntawm PCB (luam tawm cov laug cam), qee qhov khoom siv hluav taws xob me me, hloov pauv, keycaps thiab rooj plaub. Txhua qhov tshwj tsis yog rooj plaub tuaj yeem xaj online thiab kuv yuav sau lawv ntawm no. Cov ntaub ntawv tuaj yeem ua los ntawm ntau daim ntawv acrylic txiav nrog lub tshuab txiav laser, lossis tuaj yeem luam nrog lub tshuab luam ntawv 3d. Kuv tau txiav lub laser, txij li kuv xav tias nws yuav siv sijhawm tsawg dua thiab qhov tseem ceeb dua, Kuv xav tias nws zoo li txias dua!

• PCB's (ob - ib qho rau txhua txhais tes) - txuas
• 76x 5 -tus pin txhua tus yuam sij hloov pauv - Koj tuaj yeem tau txais qhov twg uas koj nyiam. Cherry MX yog qhov kuv nyiam tshaj plaws ntawm cov neeg siv tshuab keyboard nyiam, tab sis kuv pom tias Gateron pheej yig dua thiab yuav luag zoo ib yam. Kuv tau txais lawv ntawm AliExpress. - txuas
• 76x keycaps - Kuv xav tias nws yog ib qho tseem ceeb uas koj tsis tsuas yog tau txais cov keycaps, tab sis teeb tsa uas tau tsim rau ergodox txheej txheem, txij li txhua tus keycap muaj lub kaum me ntsis, thiab thaum koj sib dhos lawv kom raug nws nkhaus hauv ib txoj hauv kev tshwj xeeb. Kuv pom kuv li ntawm ebay, tab sis kuv nrhiav tsis tau qhov txuas tam sim no. Kuv pom tib yam ntawm amazon (Kuv vam tias nws yog qhov kuv muaj). txuas
• Teensy USB board 2.0 - txuas (Ib qho hauv qhov txuas muaj cov pins txuas lawm. Yog tias koj tau txais nws yam tsis muaj tus pin, tom qab ntawd koj tsuas yog yuav tsum tau muab tshuaj txhuam rau lawv tus kheej)

• Ntau Cov Khoom Siv Hluav Taws Xob (Kuv yuav lawv tag nrho ntawm DigiKey, tab sis koj tuaj yeem pom lawv ntawm lwm qhov chaw, xws li ebay lossis aliexpress ib yam nkaus)

  • MCP23018-E/SP I/O expander (Qhov tshwj xeeb no kuv tsuas tuaj yeem pom ntawm DigiKey lossis xub)
  • 2 x 2.2k Ω resistors ("liab liab liab" band xim)
  • 3 x 220 Ω resistors (rau LED's)
  • 3 x LEDs
  • 76 x 1N4148 diodes - Kuv tau txais cov nplai saum npoo av (SOD -123) tab sis nyob rau sab nraub qaum kuv yuav tsum tau txais qhov 'dhau qhov' sawv daws yuav. Kuv nyeem online tias lawv kuj haum rau hauv rooj plaub, thiab lawv yooj yim dua rau muag.
  • 1 x 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor (Lub capacitor yuav tsum cim nrog "104")
  • 1 x USB mini B txuas WM17115
  • 1 x USB mini B ntsaws nrog lub xov tooj luv (Koj tuaj yeem nqa lub qub USB mini B cable koj muaj los ntawm cov khoom qub lossis khoom siv uas koj tau tso ib puag ncig - koj yuav rhuav tshem txoj hlua rau qhov no, yog li nco ntsoov koj tsis xav tau nws)
  • 2 x 3.5mm TRRS qhov nyob - Cov no yog cov hauv paus lub mloog pob ntseg, tab sis koj yuav tsum paub tseeb tias lawv yog cov uas muaj 4 qhov sib txuas thiab tsis yog 3 zoo li ntau lub mloog pob ntseg muaj.
  • qee cov jumper cables (lossis koj tuaj yeem siv qhov koj clipped tawm ntawm cov resistors tom qab soldering)
• Cov ntaub ntawv - Rau rooj plaub, koj yuav xav tau ob peb daim ntawv acrylic. Txhua sab yog tsim los ntawm 5 txheej. Cov txheej saum toj thiab hauv qab yog 3mm tuab, thiab 3 txheej hauv nruab nrab yog 4mm tuab.
• m3 x 20mm ntsia liaj qhov rooj - Koj yuav xav tau ob peb. Nov yog rau kaw rooj plaub. txuas

Kev tsis lees paub: Qee qhov txuas muaj cov cim npe koom nrog, uas txhais tau tias kuv yuav khwv tau me ntsis yog tias koj yuav lawv los ntawm qhov txuas no. Kuv tsis ua haujlwm rau ib qho ntawm cov tuam txhab ntawd, thiab tsis ua lub neej nyob los ntawm cov kab ntawv txuas no. Nws tsuas yog coj kuv ob peb teev los sau tsab ntawv no, yog li nws yuav txias kom tau txais me ntsis hauv kev rov qab los rau nws. Tsis tas li, nws tsis muaj txiaj ntsig rau tus nqi rau koj.

Kauj Ruam 2: Soldering Diodes

Koj yuav tsum tau siv ib qho diode rau ib lub pob ntawm cov keyboard. Qhov no coj kuv mus ntev tshaj plaws (feem ntau vim tias kuv tau txais cov nplaim hluav taws xob diodes uas kuv tsis tau siv dua ua ntej), uas yog kwv yees li 3-4 teev.

Txhua lub khawm ntawm PCB tau cim los ntawm plaub fab ntawm ib lub xwmfab, thiab ntawm ib sab ntawm lub xwmfab koj yuav pom ob lub qhov, ib puag ncig los ntawm lub voj voog, thiab lwm qhov puag ncig los ntawm ib lub xwmfab. Qhov no yog qhov uas koj tau siv lub diode.

Ua ntej soldering lub diodes muaj ob yam tseem ceeb heev uas koj yuav tsum pom:

1. Cov diodes tau muab muag rau sab hauv qab ntawm PCB (Yog li koj tuaj yeem tso cov hloov pauv rau sab saum toj). Qhov no txhais tau tias rau sab xis pcb, koj muab tshuaj txhuam rau ntawm ib sab uas hais tias "Sab laug tes" thiab rau sab laug pcb, koj tau laug ntawm sab uas hais tias "Sab Tes".
2. Koj yuav tsum paub tseeb tias koj muab lawv tso rau hauv txoj kev yog! Diodes txhais tau tias tsuas yog tso cai rau tam sim no ntws mus rau hauv ib qho kev taw qhia, yog li siv lawv rau hauv txoj kev tsis raug txhais tau tias cov nyees khawm yuav tsis ua haujlwm. lwm qhov hu ua "Anode" - Yog tias koj tau txais "los ntawm qhov" diodes ces cathode tau cim nrog lub nplhaib dub nyob ib puag ncig nws. (Sab anode yog xim liab-xim liab). Yog tias koj tau txais saum npoo av (ib yam li kuv tau ua), tom qab ntawd cov cathode tau cim nrog kab dawb kab dawb ze rau ntawm ib sab. Qhov no nyuaj heev kom pom qee zaum, thiab yuav xav tau lub teeb pom kev zoo thiab lub iav tsom iav. (Koj tuaj yeem nyeem ntxiv txog diodes ntawm no)

Lwm qhov lus qhia: Yog tias koj tau txais lub diodes saum npoo av, xyuas kom tseeb siv cov kab laug sab nyias. Kuv siv 0.3mm thiab kuv xav tias nws yog qhov kev xaiv zoo.

Kauj Ruam 3: Soldering Lwm Cov Khoom Siv Hluav Taws Xob - Sab Sab Tes

Tam sim no koj muaj pcb's nrog cov khoom siv hluav taws xob sib txuas, thiab cov ntaub ntawv npaj txhij, koj npaj tau los hloov cov hloov pauv.

Ua ntej, koj yuav tsum tso cov txheej nruab nrab ntawm rooj plaub (txheej 3) saum pcb, thiab ntxig cov hloov pauv rau saum. Koj yuav tsum muaj "qhaub cij" - txheej txheej txheej thib peb hauv nruab nrab, thiab pcb hauv qab no, thiab cov hloov pauv saum toj no. Lub hauv paus ntawm cov hloov pauv haum sab hauv lub xwmfab zoo li txiav ntawm acrylic. Koj yuav xav tau siv lub zog me ntsis kom tau txais lawv, tab sis nco ntsoov tsis txhob siab dhau, thiab xyuas kom koj tsis tawg lossis puas ntawm cov khoom siv hluav taws xob thaum ua li ntawd.

Tsis tas li, saib cov pins ntawm qhov hloov pauv, thiab xyuas kom tseeb tias koj tau ntxig lawv rau hauv txoj hauv kev raug.

Thaum koj muab tag nrho lawv tso rau hauv qhov chaw, koj tuaj yeem tig lub pcb, thiab muab tus pas txhuam ntawm txhua qhov hloov pauv. Muaj ntau txoj hauv kev los ua ntawm no ib yam nkaus, tab sis qhov no nrawm dua li diodes txij li cov pins tau tuab, tuav ruaj khov nyob rau hauv qhov chaw, thiab koj tuaj yeem siv cov tuab tuab rau lawv.

Kauj Ruam 8: Muab Cov Ntaub Ntawv Tiag Tiag Ua Ke

Tom qab tag nrho cov hloov pauv tau muag, koj tuaj yeem tso cov ntaub ntawv tas li ua ke. Qhov no yuav tsum zoo nkauj ncaj nraim. Ib zaug ntxiv, ntawm no koj yuav tsum tau ua kom ntseeg tau tias koj tso cov txheej txheem raug rau qhov raug.

(Nco tseg: nco ntsoov tshem cov nplaum tiv thaiv acrylic ua ntej muab tso rau txhua qhov ua ke. Tom qab tshem tawm cov ntawv nplaum, Kuv tau so cov acrylic nrog daim ntaub paj rwb thiab cawv me ntsis kom ntseeg tau tias lawv huv.)

Muaj qhov teeb meem me me uas kuv muaj ntawm no - Thaum sib dhos txheej txheej, kuv paub tias lub mloog pob ntseg nkaus xwb yog tuab dua li 3mm.. Kuv nqa daim ntawv me me, thiab txhuam me ntsis nkhaus hauv cov txheej uas zaum saum thiab hauv qab txheej nruab nrab., raws nraim qhov twg lub mloog pob ntseg nkaus. Koj tuaj yeem pom nws hauv cov duab.

Kauj Ruam 9: Tso Keycaps Rau

Kuv tus kheej xaj kom cov keycaps pheej yig tshaj kuv tuaj yeem nrhiav tau. Kuv pom ib txheej uas tau ua rau ergodox (thiab kuv qhia koj ib yam nkaus) ntawm ebay txog $ 20.

(Kuv xam yog tias kuv pib siv cov keyboard ntau, Kuv yuav pimp nws tawm nrog cov txheej txias ntawm cov xim sib txawv!;))

Yog tias koj tau txais teeb tsa tsim los rau cov keyboard ergodox, tom qab ntawv cov yuam sij yuav muaj qhov nkhaus tshwj xeeb rau lawv, thiab koj yuav tsum tau ua kom ntseeg tau tias koj tso qhov raug rau txoj haujlwm raug - Txawm tias qhov khoob uas txhua tus zoo ib yam. Nws tsim lub kaum sab xis rau koj txhais tes thaum ntaus ntawv.

Kauj ruam 10: Hooking Up & Installing Firmware

Tam sim no koj npaj txhij los nuv nws, thiab mus !!! (Nws yuav tsum ua haujlwm tawm ntawm lub thawv, tam sim ntawd. Tsawg kawg rau kuv nws tau ua ntawm kuv lub mac)

TAB SIS … Koj yuav zaum xav kho qhov teeb tsa (vim tias qhov ntawd yog tag nrho cov ntsiab lus!). Yog li …

1. Rub tawm Teensy firmware bootloader
2. Tom qab ntawd kho koj tus qauv - Muaj ntau txoj hauv kev los ua nws. Kuv sim lawv feem ntau, thiab tus kheej kuv xav tias qhov zoo tshaj plaws yog qhov tsim los ntawm cov neeg ua rau ErgoDox EZ. Koj tuaj yeem sim nws ntawm no Nws tsis yog qhov nyuaj rau siv, tab sis yog tias koj xav tau kev pab ces tshawb hauv youtube rau cov lus qhia - Muaj ntau ntau cov vis dis aus nrog cov lus qhia thiab kev dag rau kev teeb tsa zoo.
3. Thaum koj ua tiav kev teeb tsa, koj yuav tsum rub tawm cov ntawv ua ke nrog koj li kev teeb tsa. Hauv qab ntawm tus teeb tsa yuav tsum muaj 'rub' khawm lossis txuas. Koj yuav tsum tau txais cov ntawv '.hex'.
4. Luag cov ntaub ntawv '.hex' rau Teensy loader koj rub tawm ua ntej.
5. Ntaus 'Program' khawm uas yuav theej tawm lub firmware rau 'teensy' chip, thiab tom qab ntawd nyem rau 'reboot' khawm, thiab koj Teensy yuav tsum rov pib dua nrog cov txheej txheem tshiab. (Koj tuaj yeem nyeem ntxiv txog nws ntawm no)

Kauj Ruam 11: Xaus

Txhua yam kuv muaj lub sijhawm lom zem heev tsim qhov no!

Nws yog lub tswv yim txias, qhov yooj yim (rau ib tus neeg uas tsis muaj kev paub siv tshuab hluav taws xob, thiab yuav luag tsis muaj kev paub ua tus nyiam ua haujlwm ib yam nkaus), thiab tswj tau tiag tiag. Kuv xav tias tag nrho nws coj kuv ~ 10 teev, uas kuv faib ntau hnub, txog 30 feeb ib zaug, txhua lub sijhawm tsuas yog siv ob peb yam ntxiv, lossis luam tawm lwm txheej.

Txoj kev kawm nkhaus kom tau siv rau cov keyboard no zoo nkauj heev-Kev siv rau txheej txheem ortholinear coj kuv txog 2-3 hnub, tab sis kev siv rau txhua qhov kev hloov pauv coj kuv mus ntxiv 2 lub lis piam., Kuv ib txwm saib rau qhov ua kom zoo cov yuam sij kuv siv ntau zaus hauv qhov chaw yooj yim tshaj plaws.

Yog tias koj xav tau cov ntaub ntawv ntau ntxiv txog qhov no, koj yuav tsum tau saib thawj qhov chaw ErgoDox EZ uas muaj ob peb cov vis dis aus thiab qhia txog kev siv nws.
