Questions

How big is the HD6309 computer PCB?

It measures 133 × 82 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the HD6309 computer use?

52 parts, built around the HD63C09ERP, 74HC541D, 74HCT245 and 74HC574D. 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 HD6309 computer KiCad files?

From the trcwm/HD6309-Computer repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad/HD6309_computer.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the HD6309 computer design in my own project?

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