Simple STM32 Mechanical Keyboard PCB Design in Kicad

It's been a few months since I've discussed PCBs on the channel and today I'm back with a deep dive into STM32, specifically STM32F072CBT6. This is part of a new series of releases on the ScottoKeebs repo called ScottoModules which aim to make this simpler by modularizing MCU design. In the future I hope to expand upon this more MCUs such as RP2040 or ATmega32U4. This video was sponsored by JLCPCB, my personal PCB fab of choice. They have great quality PCBs at very affordable prices and ScottoModules are setup to easily use their parts library. JLCPCB PCB Fab & Assembly from $2!
