Hi Oliver, I designed a simple cape a few months ago and had 20 boards fabbed. It uses TBD62083 buffer chips for 5-24V I/O. I designed it with KiCad. I found one mistake on it, and have to add pull up resistors to eight pins. If you'd be interested in either a bare pcb or just the KiCad files, I'm happy to share. I even have a few extras with all the smd components soldered on if I recall.
