This device is used to tap into the signals on an Antminer data cable for logic analyzers and other development purposes. The base design is a 4 layer PCB, with 2 SMD connectors that are compatible with Antminer 18 pin data cables. These cables are used for plugging in the hashboard to the control board. Also featured is an LED used to indicate that the connection is good and you are getting the required 3.3 volts from the control board. All data connections are broken out into a pin header with labels for their functions.

Questions
How big is the AntSniffer PCB?
It measures 50.1 × 30.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the AntSniffer use?
5 parts, built around the X2026WRS-2X09D-LPSW. 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 AntSniffer KiCad files?
From the skot/AntSniffer repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is AntSniffer.kicad_pcb and its schematic AntSniffer.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the AntSniffer 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).
