Questions
How big is the ZX Max 128 Issue 3 PCB PCB?
It measures 213 × 84.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the ZX Max 128 Issue 3 PCB use?
170 parts, built around the R-78E5.0-1.0, AD724JRZ, 74HC04D and AS6C1008-55PCN. 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 ZX Max 128 Issue 3 PCB KiCad files?
From the liveboxandy/ZX-Max-128-Issue-3 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is ZX Max 128 Issue 3 PCB.kicad_pcb and its schematic CPU-ROM-RAM.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the ZX Max 128 Issue 3 PCB design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask liveboxandy before reusing the design.
