This is the a small brother of my previous Pico IIDX controller. Both Pico IIDX and this Teeny IIDX share the same firmware which is in Pico IIDX repo. https://github.com/whowechina/iidx_pico
Here's me playing Konami's Beatmania IIDX ultimate mobile with it. Yes, I'm a cat lover.

Features:
- It's thin, really really thin and foldable.
- HID lights, of course!
- Multiple turntable effects.
- Many live settings.
- All source files open.
- It's easier and more portable than IIDX Pico.
Thanks to many respectful guys/companies who made their tools or materials free or open source (KiCad, OpenSCAD, InkScape, Raspberry things). And also:
- RP_Silicon_KiCad: https://github.com/HeadBoffin/RP_Silicon_KiCad
- Switch_Keyboard_Kailh: https://github.com/kiswitch/keyswitch-kicad-library
- Type-C: https://github.com/ai03-2725/Type-C.pretty
This project heavily relies on 3D printing, and skills to solder tiny components and thin cables.

I made this project in my personal time with no financial benefit or sponsorship. I will continue to improve the project. I have done my best to ensure that everything is accurate and functional, there's always a chance that mistakes may occur. I cannot be held responsible for any loss of your time or money that may result from using this open source project. Thank you for your understanding.

- 1x AS5600 hall angular sensor board set (23mm*23mm)
- 1x 6mm*2mm magnet (must be radially magnetized), normally comes with the AS5600 board set, you can use one with different size of course, but you need to modify the 3D file.
- 1x 61804-2RS deep groove ball bearing (20x32x7mm), normally < 5US$;
- 1x WS2812B LED ring board, or RGB LED strip (recommended). Choose ones with dense LED arrangement (better if >=24 LEDs per board, or >90 LEDS per meter for LED strip);
- 6x M3*6mm screws (large flat head is better) and hex nuts.
- Non slip self-adhesive silicon pads (7-8mm diameter, also for Keyboard).
- 1x Raspberry Pi Pico or Pi Pico W (if you need Bluetooth support).
https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/raspberry-pi-pico - 7x Kailh Choc v1 key switches, to get better play feel, 7 of them should be linear (35gf to 50gf).
https://www.kailhswitch.com/mechanical-keyboard-switches/low-profile-key-switches/burnt-orange-switch.html - 6x Panasonic 6mm square tactile switch EVQP1K05M or a similar Alps one.
https://www3.panasonic.biz/ac/e/dl/catalog/index.jsp?series_cd=3473&part_no=EVQP1K05M - 1x USB Type-C socket (918-418K2023S40001 or KH-TYPE-C-16P)
- 18x WS2812B-3528 RGB LEDs to light up the keys.
- 2x 0603 5.1kohm resistors for USB, (R20, R21).
- 2x 0603 0~20ohm resistors for light signals (R1, R2).
- 2x 0603 1-10kohm resistors for I2C pullup (R3, R4).
- 5x 0805 or 0603, 0.1 to 1uF capacitors.
- 4x M3*6mm screws and hex nuts to fix parts together.
- 2x silicon shielded cables with 4 core cables (about 25cm each), one for the RGB LEDs and one for the sensor.
- 1x silicon tube, outer diameter 27mm, inner diameter 25mm, so the wall thickness is 1mm.
- Keyboard PCB
Just go JLC and make the order. Make sure the board thickness is 1.2mm, it's very very important!
Print with PLA transparent materials, 0.2mm layer, 4 walls, using 0.4mm nozzle.
- PCB bottom (teeny_bottom_P1|P2.stl, choose one according to your 1P or 2P choice).
- PCB top (teeny_top.stl)
Bambu Lab's AMS system is highly recommended, use PLA black for 3.0mm+ layers. So you'll have cool looking logo and key frames.
Again, print with 0.2mm layer, using 0.4mm nozzle, 5 walls. "Seam Position" should be set to "Random" in your slicer, not only it looks better, it makes the bearing-flange coupling smoother and tension distributed more evenly.
- Base (teeny_tt.stl), PLA transparent.
- Bearing seat (teeny_bearing.stl), 20-60% fill, PLA white.
- Flange for disc (teeny_shaft.stl), 60% fill, PLA white.
- The disc (teeny_disc.stl), 60% fill, all fill patterns should be set to "Concentric".
- Print upside down, with easy-to-remove support materials.
It's similar to my previous Pico IIDX project, just read the documentation there. https://github.com/whowechina/iidx_pico
But there're something you need to pay attention:
- On Teeny's PCB, there are 2 sets of soldering pads, 1 set is for AS5600, the other is for the WS2812 LED ring.
- J1 is for LED, 5V is the power, L is LED signal, G is ground.
- J2 is for AS5600, 3V is the power (actually 3.3V), S is I2C SCL, D is I2C SDA, G is ground.
* Please use two seperate cables to wire LED and AS5600, both (or at least one) should be shielded to prevent crosstalk interference.
* Choose thin/soft cables, so they can fit. Get ultra thin USB cable or extract daughter cables from abandoned HDMI cables. 2mm diameter is the best.
* R3, R4 are optional, if turntable (I2C) is not working properly, you may try use them.
* There's a nice manual in IIDX Pico's repo, under doc folder. Follow the manual to set AS5600 to I2C mode and then do your LED ring setup.
