Hi
I found three Multibus I designs that I worked on but the project never took off. These are for Multibus I which is a great old industrial bus you hardly ever hear about any more but was and is very popular in industrial settings. Some original Multibus I systems are still in operations decades later.
There are three board templates; a dual PPI board, a prototyping board, and a bus extender. If someone wanted these they could form the basis of a bunch of new boards. However I found there is little hobbyist interest in Multibus I and was not sustainable. They are also quite large PCBs with large edge connectors which make for expensive prototypes. You'd have to be pretty motivated and/or wealthy to pursue Multibus I as a hobby.
So if you're interested let me know. Thanks, Andrew Lynch
