Several versions of the prototyping boards are available, with size and cost being the main difference between them at this point in time. The smaller one should fit within the cheapest option for most Chinese PCB fabrication services, and so would be the perfect place to start when experimenting with the easier stuff. The fullsize version should give all the space you need for most projects. See PCB layout previews below to get an impression of how these will look.

## Versions available
The following versions are currently available, I use PCBway and the small one should be around 5$ for 10 of them. Click the cards to go to the relevant details for the card, the order URLs point to my shared projects on PCBway:

If you would like to have a copy of one or more modules, what you'll need to do is zip up the contents of the export directory for each module and give that to your favourite PCB fabrication plant. Personally I prefer to use [PCBWay](https://www.pcbway.com/setinvite.aspx?inviteid=88707), the small one fits within the 5$ price and new accounts even get the first one free! Please use the supplied link when signing up to help me support this project, I'll get a small discount on future orders and hopefully I can afford to keep developing new and exciting stuff for old machines.

# Apple ][ Fullsize Prototyping Card
Several versions of the prototyping boards are available that can be used with the Apple ][, //e and //gs, with size and cost being the main difference between them at this point in time. The smaller one should fit within the cheapest option for most Chinese PCB fabrication services, and so would be the perfect place to start when experimenting with the easier stuff. The fullsize version should give all the space you need for most projects. For more general information, see the [main project page](https://github.com/tebl/Apple2-Prototyping-Card).

# Schematic
The supplied KiCad files should be sufficient as both a schematic and as a starting
point for ordering PCBs, the schematic is also available in
[PDF-format](https://github.com/tebl/Apple2-Prototyping-Card/raw/master/fullsize/export/Apple%20II%20Prototype.pdf). You can refer to the BOM below for a list of suggested components to use, part numbers in parenthesis are optional and is not required.
# BOM
Given that this is a prototyping card, it's completely up to you to decide what actually goes on the card - permanently, or temporarily when you've found the need to refine your current designs. The BOM therefore consists only of the PCB itself, but I've kept this section in keeping with the structure used with my other various projects.

Personally I prefer to use [PCBWay](https://www.pcbway.com/setinvite.aspx?inviteid=88707), each module has been designed to fit inside the 5$ dimensions.
