Questions on Eagle before sending a board off for production.

Former Member

Hi Jorge, et. al.

 

I have produced a PCB and have sent it for check at a board house and they said all is ok. Before committing I wanted to ensure success. Eagle reports 345 errors that are all in TStop layer. The solder mask crosses the silkscreen in many places, however, there is not much I can do about this, it is a tight layout. I have seen some videos on Eagle by Jeremy Blum where he states that most board houses will clean these up and to not worry about those errors.

 

Should I be concerned or not? I have limited experience and don't want to wait a month to receive defective boards! Your collective thoughts are appreciated in advance.

 

Below is an example:

    Dear J Chop,

     

    Everything should be fine. Unless it a mistake from your design and layout.

    For PCB making, they normally will not use this layer.

     

    If you don't want to see this error just deactivated them before run the DRC check.

    This will make your life easy with just few major error to check normally.

     

    Have Fun and Enjoys.

     

    Cheers,

    ES
