About the Register PCB
Register is an open source PCB design by DutchMaker, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 55.9 × 52.1 mm, with 7 components from 6 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the 74x377 and 74x245. By type, the board carries 3 connectors, 2 ICs and 1 resistor.
From the project
Building a computer from scratch using 74xx logic chips
- Add ./Libraries/74xx-Computer-Symbols.lib as global Symbol library to KiCad (Eeschema) - Add ./Libraries as global Footprint library to KiCad (Pcbnew) - PCBs are initially autorouted using ./Libraries/freeRouting.jar and traces are enhanced manually
There are a number of deviations and errors that were found in schematic/PCB designs after PCB production. They are listed here if they were not fixed in the schematic/PCB design files.
