KiCad Libraries

Set of symbols/footprints/models that I've created for my projects.

"Buy Me A Coffee"

I'm not taking responsibility for any mistakes that I could have made. Be sure to double check all the dimensions and wiring before using in projects.

How to use

Download footprints (.pretty directories) and symbols (.lib files) that you want to use and add them as global or project specific libraries. To use 3D Models, you must create SSZCZEP_MODELS environment variable pointing to models directory.

Symbols

CherryMX.lib

Name Description Preview
CherryMX Just a regular Cherry MX switch CherryMX
CherryMX_LED Cherry MX switch with THT LED CherryMX_LED
CherryMX_LTST-A683CEGBW Cherry MX switch with LTST-A683CEGBW for underglow CherryMX_LTST-A683CEGBW

Footprints

CherryMX[variant].pretty

Nearly 600 different footprints for Cherry MX switches generated using this code.

It includes variants such as:

  • Plate/PCB mounted
  • Stabilizer Plate/PCB mounted
  • No LED/2 pin LED/LTST-A683CEGBW
  • Normal switch mount/Kailh Socket for hot-swap compatibility

Example footprints:

CherryMX_1.00u_PCB CherryMX_1.00u_PCB_KailhSocket_LTST-A683CEGBW CherryMX_2.00u_PCB_Stab

3D Models

Name Description Preview
LTST-A683CEGBW Reverse mounted RGB SMD LED that I use for underglowing Cherry MX switches. Detailed datasheet can be found here. LTST-A683CEGBW
KailhSocket This model was obtained from QMK. All credits go to them. The exact file can be found here. I'm keeping it here as it is easier to link and use in all of my projects. KailhSocket
