We were speaking yesterday on IRC about a couple of designs I want made up, but was having issues with the silkscreen. I found out that the main differences between your CAM and the BatchPCB one I had previously used are as follows:
Top Silkscreen Layer does not include layers 27 tValues, 51 tDocu
Bottom Silkscreen Layer does not include layers 28 tValues 52 bDocu
I also get a couple of warnings
- Warning: Layer ‘Drills’ is active but layer ‘Holes’ is not active. Is this OK?
- Warning: Layer ‘Holes’ is active but layer ‘Drills’ is not active. Is this OK?
I think this is because
- Drill File section includes layer 44 Drills
- Non-Plated drill holes section includes layer 45 Holes
and EAGLE seems to expect to find them in the same section. I am not an expect in EAGLE CAM processing so assume this is all fine Smile
Just a little comment is that Top Paste section and Bottom Paste sections are labelled “Bottom Soldermask” but I don’t think this matters
Triffid_Hunter:
top cream and bottom cream sections were both named "Bottom Silkscreen", renamed to Top and Bottom Solder Paste
silkscreens did not have _tsilk and _bsilk selected
(also has new file)
