Questions

How big is the Computer PCB?

It measures 293 × 406 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Computer use?

994 parts, built around the MP2338GTL-Z, M29F800FT55N3E2, SN74LVC1G14DBVR and SN74AHC74DRE4. 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 Computer KiCad files?

From the SSCsimsi/8Bit_Computer repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is 8Bit Computer ver2.0/Kicad/Computer/Computer.kicad_pcb and its schematic 8Bit Computer ver2.0/Kicad/ClockGen/ClockGen.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Computer design in my own project?

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