Wireless Symmetry Optical Keyboard

The speed of optical switch depends on the speed of finger, the shortest time for finger to press a switch is about 200 us, but usually it takes a few milliseconds. Test on mcu’s adc at f_adc = 12MHz, f_s = 12 / 14 MHz, resolution = 12 bits. Get the average of the five.

fn1: switch layout

fn2: switch connection mode. long press: rf Unbind with dongle

fn3: battery status

fn4: power on led green. power off led red.
