Sweeq

Sweeq is a Ferris Sweep clone that uses diodes, instead of the latter's direct pin matrix.

The primary goal is to free up the SDA/SCL pins so they can be used by auxiliary devices such as a trackball, trackpoint or an OLED screen.

Other than the diode changes and the ability to use hotswap sockets, this keyboard is identical to the original Sweep.

Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):

Flashing example for this keyboard:

Bootloader

Enter the bootloader in 3 ways:

Bootmagic reset: Hold down the key at (0,0) in the matrix (usually the top left key or Escape) and plug in the keyboard
Physical reset button: Briefly press the button on the back of the PCB - some may have pads you must short instead
Keycode in layout: Press the key mapped to QK_BOOT if it is available
