Overview
NanoSwinSIDc is an open-source printed circuit board by hackup, from the hackup/NanoSwinSIDc repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 17.8 × 37.1 mm with 15 parts on 41 nets, routed with 177 tracks and 17 vias.
It is built around the ATMEGA88PA-AU. Its parts include 6 resistors, 2 ICs, 1 capacitor, 1 diode and 1 connector. It belongs with the AVR (ATmega, ATtiny) boards of this library.

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
The SwinSID is a drop-in replacement for the MOS 6581 and MOS 8580 sound chips. It is not fully compatible and it lacks certain features.
The NanoSwinSIDc board layout was created using KiCAD and it is heavily based on the NanoSinSIDb made by Tolaemon.
Revision 1 has been tested and can be confirmed working. Caveat: The Board/Filter labels for JP1/JP2 have accidentally been swapped!
Revision 2 features an optimized layout with standard 100mil connectors. It has not yet been tested.

Questions
How big is the NanoSwinSIDc PCB?
It measures 17.8 × 37.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the NanoSwinSIDc use?
15 parts, built around the ATMEGA88PA-AU. 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 NanoSwinSIDc KiCad files?
From the hackup/NanoSwinSIDc repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is NanoSwinSIDc.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the NanoSwinSIDc design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask hackup before reusing the design.
