Step 1

Own the
whole thing.

Two paths, same destination. Source every part and build it from scratch, or let a PCB manufacturer handle the hard steps — then finish the assembly yourself.

FULL DIY

Build From Scratch

Order every component individually, have a fab house make the bare PCB, solder everything by hand, and print the enclosure. Complete control — lowest cost, highest effort.

Order PCB + Case

Send the design files to a manufacturer like PCBWay. They solder all SMD parts and produce the enclosure to spec. You handle final wiring and the firmware flash — no soldering iron required.

Step 2

Flash the
first firmware.

Connect a blank CH552 into bootloader mode, select your device model, and write the first L.I.P.S. firmware before opening the configurator.

Step 3

Your device,
always current.

The L.I.P.S. firmware handles sensor calibration, input mapping, debounce filtering, and USB HID protocol. Every release ships with updated latency optimizations.
