Questions

How big is the 6502-Computer PCB?

It measures 160 × 160 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the 6502-Computer use?

84 parts, built around the R-785.0-1.0, FT231XS-R, 74HC00D and 74HC138. 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 6502-Computer KiCad files?

From the Kampi/6502-Computer repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is project/Mainboard.kicad_pcb and its schematic project/IO.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the 6502-Computer design in my own project?

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