This repository is deprecated and will not be updated. It has been replaced by marbastlib.

Marbastlib features more components, uses the KiCAD 6.0 library formats, and is frequently updated in collaboration with MarvFPV. Some of the new footprints: A full library of Cherry MX and Kailh Choc footprints (hotswap and regular, incl. stabilizers), revmount common anode RGB LEDs, WS2812B_2020, HRO Type-C M14 mid-mount-USB connectors and more.

This library will remain untouched in order not to break projects that depend on it, but I would recommend switching to our new library for upcoming designs. If you find any errors, please report them to me - I will still fix errors in this library.

Symbols:

• TP4056 - 1S LiIon linear battery charge/protection IC
• DW01A - 1S LiIon protection IC
• FS8205 - Dual MOSFET to be used with the DW01A
• XC6206PxxxMR - LDO
• nRF52840_holyiot_18010 - nRF52840 module from holyiot
• TXB0101 - 1-Bit bidirectional levelshifter
• WS2812B-MINI (to be used with KiCAD base SK6812MINI footprint)
• MX_LED - a symbol to be used with ai03s MX keyswitch lib, offering split symbols for LED and switch for cleaner matrix drawing
• BAV70_Small - smaller symbol to the BAV70 common cathode diode for better use in a switch matrix
• SK6812MINI-E - symbol for SK6812MINI-E (different pin order than regular MINI)

Footprints

• ECE ESP3020 - Vertical SMD slide-switch, 20V 0.5A
• nRF52840_holyiot_18010 - nRF52840 module from holyiot. Bottom IO only solderable with reflow.
• nRF52840_holyiot_18010_HS_simple - nRF52840 module from holyiot. Bottom pads removed.
• nRF52840_holyiot_18010_HS_all - nRF52840 module from holyiot. Hole in PCB + pads up to the PCB edge to solder bottom pads from the other side. Currently untested - use at you own risk (and please report back to me if you do)
• MX_SK6812MINI-E - SK6812 MINI-E (reverse mount) RGB LED add-on intended to be used with any regular MX switch footprint like ai03's lib
• MX_SK6812MINI-E_REV - Same as above, but with 180° rotated LED

3D Models

Note: If you put the submodule directly into your kicad project folder, all custom footprints have working 3D model file paths.
