Repository for the mini-eLiXiVy, a 65% mechanical keyboard PCB, suitable for ISO and ANSI layouts, USB Type C and a (tactile) rotary encoder.
This PCB is compatible with KBDFans' 65% low profile case/plate and Cherry MX(-like) keyswitches. Render of the front and back of the PCB respectively

The mini-eLiXiVy supports between 66 and 69 switches, depending on the layout chosen. In the top right of the keyboard you can either use an MX-like keyswitch or a rotary encoder with switch (see the BOM for a verified compatible option).
While the the bill of materials mentions tested compatible components, substitutes may be available, should these components become difficult to obtain. Should you choose alternatives, you do so at your own risk. I can only vouch for the compability of the listed components.
