210 Build: Schematic

Basic Unit Schematic

This design will provide you with a basic keyer with command buttons, a potentiometer speed control, speaker sidetone output, and two transmitter outputs. The Arduino Uno, Nano, Mega, and other board versions and variants can be used, however the Arduino Mega is highly recommended. This video goes through the schematic and other "getting started" topics.

Note: Ignore the numbers on the outside of the Arduino symbol and refer to the numbers within the box for pin connections (i.e. D2, D3, A0, etc.) All capacitor values are in microfarads (uF), unless otherwise stated. No values are super critical and typical tolerance components may be used.

Arduino Nano Keyer

Marc-Andre, VE2EVN, created this schematic for his keyer build using an Arduino Nano.
