ESP32 based GPIB interface - Kicad design files

This is a simple GPIB interface design using an ESP32 board as main controller. It can (optionally but highly recommanded) use a couple of driver ICs (SN75160 and SN75161/162).

The design consist in 2 boards coupled together: one with the IEEE488 connector and driver ICs, and one with the Arduino or ESP32 board.

Doing so, the common GPIB board can be used with several Arduino/ESP32 boards.

Questions

How big is the AR488-common PCB?

It measures 63.5 × 55.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the AR488-common use?

11 parts, built around the SN75160BDW and SN75162BDW. 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 AR488-common KiCad files?

From the douardda/ESP32-GPIB-pcb repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is AR488-common/AR488-common.kicad_pcb and its schematic AR488-esp32-devkitc/AR488-esp32-devkitc.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the AR488-common design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask douardda before reusing the design.
