## What is sweep?

Sweep is a version of the more fabulous [Ferris](https://github.com/pierrechevalier83/ferris) by [Pierre Chevalier](https://github.com/pierrechevalier83/) that uses a daughter board like a promicro, elite-c, bit-c, nice!nano etc. instead of using onboard components.

## What are the different types?

| Device | On/Off Switch<sup>[1]</sup> | Reversible PCB<sup>[2]</sup> | Choc V1 | Choc V2 | Choc Mini | MX & Alps | Choc Spacing<sup>[3]</sup> | Tenting<sup>[4]</sup> | Hot Swap |

> Note: All versions support bluetooth with Nice!Nano

*<sup>[1]</sup> An on/off switch is recommended for bluetooth builds.*  
*<sup>[2]</sup> With a reversible PCB it's easier to make mistakes during assembly, but it allows you to purchase less boards.*  
*<sup>[3]</sup> Choc spaced boards have the switches in a tighter grid. This provides a better final look but is only compatible with some choc keycaps. (e.g. MBK)*  
*<sup>[4]</sup> Supports splitkb's [tenting puck.](https://splitkb.com/products/tenting-puck?_pos=1&_psq=tenting%20&_ss=e&_v=1.0)*  
*<sup>[5]</sup> MX + kailh hotswap ONLY. Alps are NOT supported.*  


* Sweep2 - Recommended Choc v1 board with all the features.
* Sweep Bling MX - An MX only Sweep that features Kailh's hotswap sockets and a stacked case.
* Sweep High - Same as the Sweep2 but trades choc spacing for compatibility with more switches and keycaps.
* Sweep Half Swept - Half of a Sweep2 with double pro-micro footprint (letting you avoid having one daughter-board flipped upside-down)
* Sweep Compact Low - The only version that supports Choc minis.

## Components list

To build and use a Sweep you will need:

* 1x PCB Kit
* 2x promicro compatible boards or 2 nice!nanos.
* 34 switches of a compatible type (refer to the compatibility table)
* 34 keycaps
* 2x reset switches (optional; [B3U-1000P(M)](https://github.com/davidphilipbarr/Sweep/issues/20))
* Some little rubber feet/bumpers
* 2x power switches (optional if supported; MSK 12C02)
* 1x TRRS (not TRS!) cable (wired build only)
* 2x TRRS Jack [PJ-320A] (wired build only)
* 1 USB Cable (depends on your micro-controller choice)

## Firmware

The firmware can be found [with the Ferris  firmware as part of QMK](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/ferris/sweep).

Firmware for zmk and bluemicro_ble is called ["Cradio"](https://zmk.dev/docs/hardware/).
