Glyphkbd V2

An open-source ortho TKL with on-board controller: glyphkbd v2 by _galile0.

Published March 12, 2024

This "ortho TKL" called glyphkbd was designed and shared by galile0. The 5x13 ortholinear layout is extended by a navigation and arrow cluster, largely inspired by drFaustroll's m65 as well as the Stucco.

The glyph v1 was handwired and used sealing strips as a mounting method, something the author learned from KotteCE's Batoid. Glyphkbd_v2 uses a custom PCB with integrated STM32F072 controller running QMK, with 3D printed top mount case.

Specs

• 74 keys (13x5 + arrow and navigation cluster)
• MX, soldered
• on-board STM32F072 controller
• QMK, VIA
• 3D printed case (top mount)
