ROSCO M68K — DIY Retro Computer Kit (THT Version)

ROSCO M68K is a DIY kit for building an educational retro computer based on the Motorola 68010 CPU. All components use through-hole technology, making the kit accessible even for those who are new to soldering. It is a solid platform for understanding core computer concepts such as memory, buses, clocking, firmware, bootloaders, and low-level programming.

Overview

Ships worldwide

The kit includes the PCB, all required chips and components, as well as access to firmware, documentation, and open-source ROSCO M68K resources. Once assembled, you get a fully functional system that can be used via UART, programmed with custom software, and explored as a hands-on implementation of the classic 68K architecture.

Each kit is tested before shipping, and selected modules are pre-flashed. This is a practical build-it-yourself system that can be assembled in a single evening, resulting in a working retro computer built entirely by you.
