Overview
N64 is an open-source printed circuit board by Tordek, from the Tordek/tdk64 repository on GitHub, published under the GPL-3.0 licence. It is a 2-layer board of 69.2 × 48.3 mm with 36 parts on 36 nets, routed with 136 tracks and 6 vias.
It is built around the PIC18F2550-I/SP and LM1117-ADJ. Its parts include 14 resistors, 8 connectors, 6 capacitors, 3 diodes and 2 ICs. It belongs with the interfaces and adapters boards and the PIC boards of this library.

README

You will need Microchip MLA for the USB libraries.
The USB VID and PID have been chosen arbitrarily; they might cause conflicts that need to be resolved.
Warning
This is an old project that I haven't updated in a while. cheat.c is not included because it's an easter egg that I implemented for my version.
It should work, from the last time I tested it. There is a KiCAD schematic included in the n64 directory.
Have fun!

Questions
How big is the N64 PCB?
It measures 69.2 × 48.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the N64 use?
36 parts, built around the PIC18F2550-I/SP and LM1117-ADJ. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the N64 KiCad files?
From the Tordek/tdk64 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is n64/n64.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the N64 design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
