H8 Hardware
This page contains H8 expansion boards. These are brand new redesigned and modernized (when possible) PCBs.
Feel free to download the Gerber files if you wish to produce your own boards. I use Ourpcb to manufacture my boards. They have good prices and include a silkscreen and solder mask.
For those that want to modify my cards you can download a complete set of all my KiCad projects here (9.5mb).

H8-17
Material List
A replica of the WH17 Disk Controller from Heath. Modified to allow easy configuration for ORG0 and non-ORG0 systems as well as adding some diagnostic LEDs. Also note that there is an accompanying 1K adapter card that will convert the signals from the memory socket to a pair of 2114s as the original card had. This is for better compatibility with non-ORG0 systems.

H8-8-8
A smaller more compact version of the HA8-8 Extended Configuration card from Heath. This card inserts facing forward as opposed to the original which faced toward the back. This card along with the accompanying ROM (Part #444-70) converts an H8 computer to an ORG0 system. The ROM is supplied on a 2732 EEPROM which means you will need to configure your CPU card accordingly.
