Welcome to the KinesisBLE wiki!

Status 2020-12-17

I've been waiting for weeks for the Nrf52840 so I still haven't wired it up yet (amazon cancelled the first order then the Adafruit order is in USPS hell). This was the first time I ever did any sort of PCB design so all bets are off as to whether it works or not. The two holes I added for the alignment pins need to be shift towards the center 0.5mm each. Other than that the physical layout seems okay but the real test will be once I get the new Molex connectors for the PCBs that go straight into the board. I did find both Molex connectors at digikey but they are out of the right angled ones for the Kinesis Professional. I attached pictures of the correction that needs to be made for the alignment pins and showing the Kinesis Professional connector. Note the Kinesis Professional connector was not soldered but looks like it will work okay. I also made the board smaller to reduce cost. I think think it's as small as it can get since the Professional model requires the connectors to be in fixed locations for the pcb fingers.
