deʃhipuI feel like this could actually be sold on Tindie, so I added this board to an order I was making anyways. The boards arrived this week, and today I decided it's time to play a bit of a sweat shop and assemble a couple of them. However, this is the only MCP23017 chip I could find in my drawer:
I think it may be the wrong footprint for it...

Nice. Am I right in thinking that you plan to sell these populated?

Yes, of course, that's the whole point of a ready to use module. I assume that people who can solder such chips are perfectly capable of making their own breakouts and figuring out the connections without needing a ready shield (though again, they still might go for the convenience of having an already designed and soldered up module).

that'd be a good board to run on my pnp, let me know if you are interested in doing something...

The logistics for that would be a bit tricky. I could send you a couple of boards to try, but it will be cheaper if you just order them yourself (free shipping). Same for the parts. I attached the gerber files to the project, if you would like to try. The resistors are 10kΩ, and the capacitor is anything between 0.5 and 4µF.
