Questions

How big is the Mc68681-basic PCB?

It measures 80 × 110 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Mc68681-basic use?

32 parts, built around the 74HCT245 and XR68C681CJTR-F. 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 Mc68681-basic KiCad files?

From the rosco-m68k/hardware-projects repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is mc68681-duart/design/kicad/mc68681-basic/mc68681-basic.kicad_pcb and its schematic RAM-hat-4MB/Rosco_Hat_RAM.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Mc68681-basic design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
