GaiZhongGai-Keyboard-68+4PRO

The project debuted on the Chinese version of the forum [OSHWHub](https://oshwhub.com/yangzen/zui-gai68-) - - - In Chinese, this name is described as bargain among bargain goods, which means very bargain.

Thank you. Taiwan compatriots please send money to me. ### 1.function Introduction Usually state

 Press the FN

 ### 2.Hardware Introduction This is the circuit of the mechanical keyboard on the market (QMK's scheme is such), a typical matrix keyboard with anti-keystroke diodes.

 This is my new matrix keyboard scanning circuit

 If you analyze the circuit with ideal diodes, you will get confused,

while pressing S1,S3. Uio2=Uio3=0V when scanning IO1 bit low? This will read S1,S2 press???

 This is the voltammetric characteristic diagram of onsemi 1N4148, and note that the horizontal axis is exponential.

It can be seen that there is a positive guide voltage drop of 500mV even at the lowest current of 0.1mA.

Combined with the above questions, it can be inferred that Uio2=0.5V and Uio3=1V.

At this time, we will check the MCU electrical parameters

 This is the technical document of CH552G. It is clear which supply voltage to choose.

Then through the real machine test, it is necessary to add the pull-up resistance to increase the diode conduction current and increase the voltage drop to obtain a more stable scanning detection effect. ### 3.Assembly note The bottom plate is fixed with solder welded copper nut  Some holes need to plug screws in advance, and then weld switches  ### 4.Write the firmware If the software is opened in Chinese, please turn on this setting to switch to English mode

 To burn the firmware, perform the following operations. Before the fifth step, press BOOT to insert the USB and release BOOT

 ## Firmware update content Ver1.10: 1. Improve USB code 2. When the indicator is turned off, the CapsLock turns on a white indicator Ver1.11: 1. Add SD card reading light effect. When detecting flicker, space will blink. Function off by default, 5 consecutive light effect control to switch, power off save
