A full fledged keyboard usually features 104 keys, featuring a
number pad, arrow keys and function key row. Those are your 100%.
Keyboards that take away keys are described in a fraction of those
104 keys. I am typing this on a 40% atreus keyboard that has 42
keys only. As you see the percentage is not that accurate :)

Ah ok, I am always getting confused about the naming. Some sellers
even sell a pro micro that features the ordinary Atmega328p...
Which is not what you want since then you need to do the usb stack
in software in your application...
Kind regards!
