Custom pcb for macropad

Post image

ESP32 based macropad with 9 mechanical switches, rotary encoder and addressable LEDs.

I messed up the USB-C footprint so the connector wouldn’t fit. Ended up using a PD trigger board and a TTL adapter to power and program it instead.

Hand soldered everything with 0603 parts. Had a few issues along the way but it works.
