Kimera core

What little available info that was available for the qmk port

• atmega32u4 16Mhz
  • board seems to have a 6Mhz crystal
• 2x PCA9555 I2C IO expander

Links:

• Schematic, BOM, Gerbers
• Original firmware

Bootloader

Default bootloader is atmel-dfu. Reboot to bootloader via magnetic switch next to icsp header. Flash using regular dfu methods.

XD84 pin mappings

Taken from kimera-config.json

"row_mapping": [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ],
"col_mapping": [ 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31 ],

RGB

• PIN C7
• Number of RGB LED 7

Backlight

• PIN B6

Light Through Cat

TODO - PWM C6

Assumptions

Pin/Port mappings

• All cols are on the same IC
• All rows are on the same IC and port
• Pins mapped sequentially
• Each port only does row or column not a mixture of both
  • No need to have complex port config

ROW index	Kimera Pin	PCA9555
0	1	IC1 Port 0 pin 0
1	2	IC1 Port 0 pin 1
2	3	IC1 Port 0 pin 2
3	4	IC1 Port 0 pin 3
4	5	IC1 Port 0 pin 4
5	6	IC1 Port 0 pin 5

• Safe enough to assume row_index == pin

COL index	Kimera Pin	PCA9555
0	17	IC2 Port 0 pin 0
1	18	IC2 Port 0 pin 1
2	19	IC2 Port 0 pin 2
3	20	IC2 Port 0 pin 3
4	21	IC2 Port 0 pin 4
5	22	IC2 Port 0 pin 5
6	23	IC2 Port 0 pin 6
7	24	IC2 Port 0 pin 7
8	25	IC2 Port 1 pin 0
9	26	IC2 Port 1 pin 1
10	27	IC2 Port 1 pin 2
11	28	IC2 Port 1 pin 3
12	29	IC2 Port 1 pin 4
13	30	IC2 Port 1 pin 5
14	31	IC2 Port 1 pin 6

• Safe enough to assume here col_index does not need to be converted to pin
• Reading both ports one after the other gives us the same sequential behavior
  • maps to the usual practice of reading matrix columns
  • while this technically gives 16 column reads, the 16th column can never be set so is safely ignored

Notes

pca9555 datasheet

• Other Kimera based boards with non sequential pin mappings, pins mapped across ICs, or mixed row/col configs will need more complicated pin -> i2c_addr,port,pin logic as well as rather more complex pin functions.

Return to stock firmware

Not tested but original firmware seems to be available in the kairyu/tkg-firmware repo.
