Questions

How big is the Alius 6502 PCB?

It measures 208 × 175 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Alius 6502 use?

129 parts, built around the 74HC595, 74HC00D, 74HC02 and 74HC21D. 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 Alius 6502 KiCad files?

From the robsonde/Alius6502_PCB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Alius_6502.kicad_pcb and its schematic Alius_6502.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Alius 6502 design in my own project?

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