Read More…Featuring an 8-bit 6502 processor running at 10MHz, 528KB RAM, 8KB ROM (expandable to 32KB) and advanced IO capabilities thanks to the on-board XR68C681 dual UART, the rosco_6502 is easy to build and lots of fun to hack on.
With our open-source firmware with built in ROM monitor, SD card support (additional hardware required) and ability to send files via serial, the rosco_6502 is ready to hack on just as soon as you've soldered it up!
Note: actual PCB colour may vary.
Note: this product is brand new, and we're always adding new features - An EEPROM programmer is recommended to get the most out of your rosco_6502! 🥳
Order the parts, grab your soldering iron, and join in the fun of putting your own computer together!
The rosco_6502 is designed to be easy to solder, and no special skills or equipment are needed! Simply grab a regular (ideally temperature-controlled) soldering iron, some solder (we like lead-free 0.6mm diameter) and have at it!
All components are brand-new and of the very highest-quality.
In addition to the base PCB and components and soldering gear, we recommend the following:

Just like the hardware, the firmware and software for the rosco_6502 are open source, and we're constantly improving and adding new features to it. You'll find everything you need at https://github.com/rosco-6502 including the standard firmware and example programs.
Programs are loaded to the board via serial link, controlled by the built in ROM monitor.
And of course, if you're so inclined, you can completely replace the standard firmware with your own code, giving you total control :)

Please note that owing to recent changes in the way VAT is collected and processed within the EU, European (non-UK) customers will be required to pay import duties and possibly processing fees to the carrier before their package is delivered. Due to Tindie being based in the US, there is nothing we can do about those charges at present, but we are keeping the situation under review and analysing options for the future.
