They\u2019re not big enough to list all your noteworthy achievements, let alone showcase your talents. In other words, many of them are forgettable, unless you yourself left quite an impression when you left your card with people.<\/p>\n<p>Some people do craft stylish and elaborate business cards, but their novelty fades easily, and so do the memories. It\u2019s quite a design challenge to make such a small object represent you in the best way possible, which is what makes this rather creative solution even more impressive by showing off electrical engineering prowess with a tiny keyboard the size of a business card.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/ricardox2x\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ricardo Daniel de Paula<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-532901\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/04\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Ingenious business card is a circuit board that is also a working keyboard\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-01.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-532900\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/04\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Ingenious business card is a circuit board that is also a working keyboard\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-532900\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/04\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Ingenious business card is a circuit board that is also a working keyboard\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-02.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7222236028814181\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" type=\"b7e46a3d00a29ca91ec17fa8-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- In-Content-Ad-1 --><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"b7e46a3d00a29ca91ec17fa8-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>We\u2019ve all seen tiny keyboards for smartphones and other devices, but those are still big enough to accommodate an average thumb size.

Well, a fully functional 40% keyboard, at least.<\/p>\n<p>The card springs to life thanks to a USB-C connector in the upper right corner of the card. It doesn\u2019t go into detail, but it will likely plug into a USB-C cable that\u2019s connected to a device like a computer. It would probably be more convenient if you could plug the card directly into something like a Phone\u2019s USB-C port, but the design of the plug doesn\u2019t exactly allow for that.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-532904\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/04\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Ingenious business card is a circuit board that is also a working keyboard\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-532904\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/04\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Ingenious business card is a circuit board that is also a working keyboard\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-04.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-532905\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/04\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Ingenious business card is a circuit board that is also a working keyboard\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-532905\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/04\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Ingenious business card is a circuit board that is also a working keyboard\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/ingenious-business-card-is-a-circuit-board-that-is-also-a-working-keyboard\/keyboard-business-card-03.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Will it be a useful keyboard that you can take with you and use anywhere? Hardly, but it does get the message across. It will definitely leave a bigger impact, even if just for its design. At the very least, it also serves as a very short 8.5cm ruler, so still serves a purpose even if you will never use it for typing.<\/p>\n<div class=\"swp-hidden-panel-wrap\" style=\"display: none; visibility: collapse; opacity: 0\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"swp-content-locator\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 -->\n                                            <\/div>\n<p><span class=\"vcard author\"><br \/>\n                            <span>By<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                                <span>JC Torres<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                        <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
