Id like to design a simple board over the holidays, I've never layed
out a board before, so Im a little nervous :)
I've started the schematic capture, and the routing and found a cheap
place to get it fabd. (I dont want to muddy the waters by doing a
homebrew pcb myself!)
Id like to go with whatevers the cheapest to manufacture, so Im
thinking about the $65 single sided boards at www.olimex.com/pcb/ .
There are a lot of suppliers around the $100 mark, depending on speed,
how many you want, and shipping method/speed.
However, Im a little unsure about their requirements:
Does a "SINGLE SIDE SSS" normally mean that all the traces will be on
one side? i.e. I cant route vias from the bottom to the topside
inorder to ease the routing? I would prefer to have 2 signal
layers, (no power layers, etc) but this might be the more expensive
"DOUBLE SIDE BOARD" option?
Single-sided means no vias and traces only on one side.
Also, does the standard drill tools (.7,.9,1,1.1,1.3,1.5,2.1,3.3mm)
refer to the thru-hole ICs (in case I have any)?
Thanks!
All holes (including those in footprints).
Do pay atention to the minimum trace size, minimum hole size (eg. for
vias), and minimum annular ring..
Best regards,
