Quefrency: A 60% split staggered keyboard, with 65% option for the right half, and 2x5 macro section option for the left half. Pronounced as keew-fren-see.
Coming Soon: Quefrency Rev. 2 - Pre-assembled PCBs with on-board controllers and RGB underglow, currently available FR4 plates are compatible with Rev. 1 and Rev. 2 PCBs.
Note: For the plate kits, they come with 10mm standoffs for use with Pro Micros. If using the Elite-C, you will need 12mm standoffs.
60% Layout Options
65% Layout Options
Supports options for split backspace and split right shift.
Does not have in-switch LED support at the moment.
The PCB and Plate kits come in 4 different variants to allow you to mix and match halves:
- Left half 60%
- Left half w/2x5 Macro section
- Right half 60%
- Right half 65%
The plates are black and are made of FR4 material (was aluminum previously).
A 60% right half can be hot-swapped with a 65% right half and vice-versa without needing to reflash any halves.
PCB Kits and Plate Kits are sold separately from each other. To do a complete build, you will need to purchase one of each.

Each Half Kit includes:
- PCB for half
