Thanks

Thanks to Steven Casagrande of Galvant Industries for releasing his GPIB-to-USB adapter as open source hardware. Using a few of his KiCAD footprints saved me a lot of time!

Questions

How big is the Atmega gpib PCB?

It measures 49.5 × 49.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Atmega gpib use?

24 parts, built around the ATMEGA168PA-PN and MCP2221A-I/P. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Atmega gpib KiCad files?

From the cellularmitosis/atmega-gpib repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad/atmega-gpib.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Atmega gpib design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
