KiCad Libraries
Set of symbols/footprints/models that I've created for my projects.
I'm not taking responsibility for any mistakes that I could have made. Be sure to double check all the dimensions and wiring before using in projects.
How to use
Download footprints (.pretty directories) and symbols (.lib files) that you want to use and add them as global or project specific libraries. To use 3D Models, you must create SSZCZEP_MODELS environment variable pointing to models directory.
Symbols
CherryMX.lib
Name | Description | Preview |
---|---|---|
CherryMX | Just a regular Cherry MX switch | ![]() |
CherryMX_LED | Cherry MX switch with THT LED | ![]() |
CherryMX_LTST-A683CEGBW | Cherry MX switch with LTST-A683CEGBW for underglow | ![]() |
Footprints
CherryMX[variant].pretty
Nearly 600 different footprints for Cherry MX switches generated using this code.
It includes variants such as:
- Plate/PCB mounted
- Stabilizer Plate/PCB mounted
- No LED/2 pin LED/LTST-A683CEGBW
- Normal switch mount/Kailh Socket for hot-swap compatibility

3D Models
Name | Description | Preview |
---|---|---|
LTST-A683CEGBW | Reverse mounted RGB SMD LED that I use for underglowing Cherry MX switches. Detailed datasheet can be found here. | ![]() |
KailhSocket | This model was obtained from QMK. All credits go to them. The exact file can be found here. I'm keeping it here as it is easier to link and use in all of my projects. | ![]() |
