Questions
How big is the DiskII PCB?
It measures 100 × 77.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the DiskII use?
35 parts, built around the 74LS05P-E, 74LS132P-E, 74LS174DC and 74LS323PC. 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 DiskII KiCad files?
From the btb/DiskII repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is DiskII.kicad_pcb and its schematic DiskII.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the DiskII design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the Apache-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
