[kicad-users] PCB manufacture and silk screens
Hi 1 of the 2 boards I am producing has components on both sides. Ideally the component layout would be on both sides silkscreened, but looking at the likes of elektor pcb services they state 1 silk screen! Is this normal or just the service they are offering to keep costs down. http://www.elektor.com/news/elektor-pcb-service-launched.959562.lynkx Regards John

The norm seems to be silkscreen on one side only. FWIW, I did order cards for a project from China, via a contact in sweden (was willing to pay some extra to have another pair of eyes peek at my layout) and it was a bit cheaper than Elektor. - Anders Gustafsson Engineer, CNE6, ASE Pedago, The Aaland Islands (N60 E20) www.pedago.fi phone +358 18 12060 mobile +358 40506 7099 fax +358 18 14060 Seroxatmad seroxat...@hotmail.co.uk 2010-08-19 10:50 Ideally the component layout would be on both sides silkscreened, but looking at the likes of elektor pcb services they state 1 silk screen!

I have a board of mine here from long before I discovered kicad which is populated and silk screened on both sides. It has both through-hole and SMT components. I don't recall any problems getting it manufactured. Regards, Robert. On 19/08/2010 08:50, Seroxatmad wrote: Hi 1 of the 2 boards I am producing has components on both sides.
