Title: Design PCB for Keychron optical switches
Post by: mathisart on Sun, 09 April 2023, 02:05:55
Hi, what type of slots must the PCB have in order to house the Keychron low profile optical switches?

I don't see the usual stems that you solder into the PCB holes.

This video shows that there's a sensor on the PCB that detects the light gets blocked: youtube.com/watch?v=dCqZy_K7fkA. I wonder what that's called on Kicad...
