Questions
How big is the Chip-8 Display PCB?
It measures 44.8 × 100.8 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Chip-8 Display use?
584 parts, built around the 74HCT595D. 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 Chip-8 Display KiCad files?
From the mengstr/Discrete-CHIP-8 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Attic/Display/Chip-8_Display.kicad_pcb and its schematic Attic/Display/Chip-8_Display.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Chip-8 Display design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask mengstr before reusing the design.
