6502_Computer

This repository stores everything for my 6502 project. This includes schematics, datasheets, C scripts, and assembly programs . Ben Eater designed a custom clock module and 6502 computer on a breadboard. I expanded on that project, by combining those and turning them into a PCB.


Pretty dope red PCB I designed (4 layers:wink:)

My Breadboard, not too shabby:sunglasses:

Questions

How big is the Clock module 6502 PCB?

It measures 133.4 × 151.8 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Clock module 6502 use?

69 parts, built around the LM555CN, MC74HC00AD, SN74LS04N and SN74LS08N. 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 Clock module 6502 KiCad files?

From the Grudz/6502_Computer repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is clock_module_6502/clock_module_6502.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Clock module 6502 design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Grudz before reusing the design.
