About the 16up PCB
16up is an open source PCB design by SukkoPera, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 60.8 × 85 mm, with 19 components from 15 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the GAL20V8, MOS_6529, MOS_6551_ACIA, 74HCT04 and 74LS654. By type, the board carries 5 ICs, 4 connectors, 4 capacitors, 3 resistors, 1 crystal and 1 jumper.
It belongs with the retro computing designs in this gallery.
From the project
User Port Cartridge for the Commodore 16, 116 and Plus/4
... None of them except this project, of course! :) 16UP will plug into the Expansion Port and "convert" it to a User Port that will be mostly compatible with that featured on the Plus/4. It can also be used on a Plus/4 in order to gain an extra User Port.
If you are interested in this board, please read this document carefully, there are a few aspects that you must be aware of.
