KiCad Project and Gerbers for an Adapter that converts a D-SUB 19 socket to a 20 pin IDC box header

This repository contains the KiCad project and Gerber files for an adapter that converts a D-SUB 19 socket to a 20 pin IDC box header. D-SUB 19 sockets where used on the Atari ST (DMA/Harddisk connector). They are out of production for a long time and are extremely hard to get hold of and expensive nowadays. This adapter is a cheap workaround. It connects the 19 pins 1:1 to the pins of the IDC box header, with pin 20 unused. It should be compatible with the so-called UltraSatan Cables.
