About the Z80 schematics PCB

Z80 schematics is an open source PCB design by roberto314, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 100 × 100 mm, with 62 components from 21 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the XC9572VQ44, SN74LVC245ANSR, SN74LVCC3245ANSR, SN74LVC125AD and Z80CPU. By type, the board carries 28 connectors, 13 resistors, 8 ICs, 8 capacitors and 5 jumpers.

It belongs with the retro computing designs in this gallery.

From the project

A modular 8-bit Computer able to recreate (nearly) every Retro computer of the late 70s to mid 80s.

A modular 8-bit Computer able to recreate (nearly) every microcomputer of the mid 70s to early 80s in Hardware without FPGAs (although an FPGA can be added). Can also be used as a teaching tool for:

VHDL or Verilog C RTOS (STM32F401 runs ChibiOS Link: https://www.chibios.org) Python bash and linux in general (Olimex board runs linux with fbterm and tmux) Harwaredesign Timing of CPUs maybe Assembler SPI and I2C Interfaces CPLDs and FPGAs

Z80 schematics: common questions

How big is the Z80 schematics PCB?

The Z80 schematics measures 100 × 100 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Z80 schematics?

62 components, from 21 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Z80 schematics design files?

From the roberto314/Unicomp2 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Z80 schematics design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with roberto314. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
