4layer design support

Former Member
Former Member over 13 years ago

I am now using eagle.
In layer setup i used this equations.
[3:1*2*3*16:2]
i am not a proffesional worker.
So can u please generate a equation 4 layer set up.
i need connections form Top layer to 3rd layer.
3rd layer to bottom layer.
2nd layer to bottom layer.
Could you please generate layer setup

    Some example stackups are given on page 131 of the manual.  The one I am

    using for 4 layers is (12+316).  The parenthesis indicate that vias

    are continuous (this is more economical than blind vias).  I believe for

    blind vias you use brakets [] instead of parenthesis.

    Do you REALLY want so-called 'blind vias', meaning that these go from

    the outside to a certain inner layer AND STOP THERE?

     

    If yes, then you SHOULD ask your circuit board manufacturer how the

    layers should be constructed: Not every manufacturer can create all

    theoretically possible layer stacks. Try

       ()

    or

       ()

    but both MAY be very expensive or problematic to manufacture. Exchanging

    the contents of layers 2 and 3 results in a much nicer layer stack, e.g.

       ()

     

    But, as John Friede already pointed out, CONTINUOUS vias (going

    completely THROUGH the board) are much cheaper and less error-prone. If

    you can live with these, try the layer stack that John suggested:

       (12+316)
