	QMK-based firmware for Zenith Z-150 keyboard
Zenith Z-150 keyboard conversion project: direct connection of Black Pill to the matrix.
- Keyboard Maintainer: DmNosachev
- Hardware Supported: Zenith Z-150 keyboard, 100-1860 version with white logo, Black Pill STM32F103C8T6 MCU board. Alternatevely you can use any MCU which is supported by QMK and has 22 or more IO pins: Arduino Micro, Teensy 2.0, Teensy 2.0++, Blue Pill, etc.
Earlier 100-1886 version with black logo has different PCB.
Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
make handwired/z150:default
See the build environment setup and the make instructions for more information. Brand new to QMK? Start with our Complete Newbs Guide.
Modding
Matrix
Z-150 has 11x8 matrix. It's ghost-free thanks to the diodes.
Columns are located under NEC D8049HC MCU IC:

Rows are connected to unmarked 24-pin MUX IC:

LEDs
LEDs (from left to right): NumLock, CapsLock, ScrollLock:

Their anodes are connected to VCC through 220Ω resistors.

You can keep the original resistors, but with Black Pill or any other 3.3V controller the LEDs may seem a little dim. Try 150Ω or close value if you want to fix that.
Black Pill
Suggested mount position for the Black Pill (view from the bottom side of the PCB):
      R0  R1  R2  R3  R4  R6          R9  LC  LN  LS

- Desolder all ICs, crystal oscillator, capacitors and resistors except R0–R2 (they connect LEDs to VCC).
- Solder 12-pin header to the Black Pill (pins B11–A0 on the left side).
- Solder two 3-pin headers for boot jumpers.
- Solder 4-pin SWD header.
- Burn STM32duino bootloader to Black Pill.
- Compile and flash the firmware: make handwired/z150:default:flash
- Align Black Pill pins B11–A4 with columns 0–7 and solder them.
- Connect rows, LEDs, ground and VCC traces to the corresponding pins of the BlackPill using additional wires.
