+# Phoenix45_Ortho
+
+![Phoenix45_Ortho](https://i.imgur.com/OvgOhIe.png)
+
+The Phoenix45_Ortho PCB is an ortholinear alternative to Mechvault's Phoenix45. It should also work in the JD45.
+
+* Keyboard Maintainer: [Nasp](https://github.com/npspears)
+* Hardware Supported: Phoenix45
+* Hardware Availability: https://www.checkerboards.xyz/phoenix45-ortho.html
+
+Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
+
+ make checkerboards/phoenix45_ortho:default
+
+To put the PCB into bootloader mode, short the two pin holes together that are just beneath diode #23.
+
+See the [build environment setup](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_build_tools) and the [make instructions](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_make_guide) for more information. Brand new to QMK? Start with our [Complete Newbs Guide](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/newbs).
