# Southpaw Extended 65%
Development docs covering the following:
- Kimera core
- RGB
- Backlight
## Kimera core
![Kimera core](https://gd2.alicdn.com/imgextra/i4/159916802/TB2qsIgdrJkpuFjy1zcXXa5FFXa_!!159916802.jpg)
What little available info that was available for the qmk port
- atmega32u4 16Mhz
- board seems to have a 6Mhz crystal
- 2x PCA9555 I2C IO expander

### Bootloader
Default bootloader is `atmel-dfu`.
Reboot to bootloader via magnetic switch next to icsp header.
Flash using regular dfu methods.
### Southpaw Extended 65 pin mappings
Taken from [kimera-config.json](https://github.com/kairyu/tkg/blob/master/keyboard/config/kimera-config.json)
"row_mapping": [ 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ],
"col_mapping": [ 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31 ],
# RGB
- PIN C7
- Number of RGB LED 7
# Backlight
- PIN B5
# Capslock
- PIN B6
# Numlock
- PIN C6
## Assumptions
### Pin/Port mappings
- All cols are on the same IC
- All rows are on the same IC and port
- Pins mapped sequentially
- Each port only does row or column not a mixture of both
- No need to have complex port config
-
| ROW index | Kimera Pin | PCA9555 |
| ----------|------------|-------------------|
| 0 | 2 | IC1 Port 0 pin 1 |
| 1 | 3 | IC1 Port 0 pin 2 |
| 2 | 4 | IC1 Port 0 pin 3 |
| 3 | 5 | IC1 Port 0 pin 4 |
| 4 | 6 | IC1 Port 0 pin 5 |
- Safe enough to assume `row_index == pin`
| COL index | Kimera Pin | PCA9555 |
| ----------|------------|-------------------|
| 0 | 13 | IC1 Port 1 pin 4 |
| 1 | 14 | IC1 Port 1 pin 5 |
| 2 | 15 | IC1 Port 1 pin 6 |
| 3 | 16 | IC1 Port 1 pin 7 |
| 4 | 17 | IC2 Port 0 pin 0 |
| 5 | 18 | IC2 Port 0 pin 1 |
| 6 | 19 | IC2 Port 0 pin 2 |
| 7 | 20 | IC2 Port 0 pin 3 |
| 8 | 21 | IC2 Port 0 pin 4 |
| 9 | 22 | IC2 Port 0 pin 5 |
| 10 | 23 | IC2 Port 0 pin 6 |
| 11 | 24 | IC2 Port 0 pin 7 |
| 12 | 25 | IC2 Port 1 pin 0 |
| 13 | 26 | IC2 Port 1 pin 1 |
| 14 | 27 | IC2 Port 1 pin 2 |
| 15 | 28 | IC2 Port 1 pin 3 |
| 16 | 29 | IC2 Port 1 pin 4 |
| 17 | 30 | IC2 Port 1 pin 5 |
| 18 | 31 | IC2 Port 1 pin 6 |
- Need to read both ICs and corresponding port to compile the correct column data
- All pins are mapped sequentially
- maps to the usual practice of reading matrix columns
- Needs uint32_t to read 19 columns of data
## Notes
[pca9555 datasheet](https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/pca9555.pdf)
- Other Kimera based boards with non sequential pin mappings, pins mapped across ICs, or mixed row/col configs will need more complicated `pin -> i2c_addr,port,pin` logic as well as rather more complex pin functions.
## Return to stock firmware
To return back to stock TMK firmware, use [programming guide provided by Reconsiderit](https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=92344.msg2625784#msg2625784)
