Questions

How big is the Chip8-pcb PCB?

It measures 45 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.61 mm thick.

What parts does the Chip8-pcb use?

58 parts, built around the W25Q128JVSIQ, AP2112K-3.3, TP5400 and BCM857BS. 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 Chip8-pcb KiCad files?

From the plorefice/chip8-rs repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is chip8-pcb/chip8-pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic chip8-pcb/chip8-pcb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Chip8-pcb design in my own project?

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