About the BE6502 Clock PCB

BE6502 Clock is an open source PCB design by tebl, published on GitHub under the CERN-OHL-1.2 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 45.7 × 99.1 mm, with 29 components from 15 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the LM555, 74LS00 and 74LS08. By type, the board carries 8 capacitors, 7 resistors, 5 ICs, 4 modules, 2 switches and 1 connector.

It belongs with the dev boards & breakouts and retro computing designs in this gallery.

From the project

A PCB being made while watching Ben Eaters "Build a 6502 computer" video series. Includes the computer itself, a standalone slow clock and an Arduino Mega shield for the bus monitor sketch..

Ben Eater has been a huge inspiration for many getting into building computers using basic electronic building blocks, his videos are truly excellent and it is no wonder he's often referred to as the Bob Ross of Breadboards! His latest project is building a 6502 computer on a breadboard, a video series that I'm sure will also inspire a lot of new users to the art of building stuff with the 6502! Check out the main README for an overview of all the modules available to the BE6502 computer.
