Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the HCPL-263N?
Yes. The symbol is Isolator:HCPL-263N and the footprint Package_DIP:DIP-8_W7.62mm, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.
What package is the HCPL-263N?
DIP-8, with 8 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.
Where is the HCPL-263N datasheet?
Broadcom Limited publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.
Where can I order the HCPL-263N?
JLCPCB lists it as part C6630888, with 0 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.
What can replace the HCPL-263N?
Parts like it in the library: the 6N137S-TA1-L by Lite-On, the 6N137 by Everlight Electronics, the 6N137M by UMW and the TLP250H(TP1,F) by Toshiba. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
Which open-source boards use the HCPL-263N?
1 board in 1 repository on GitHub; the most starred are listed on this page, with their KiCad files.
