Version 10MM

abvadax

JUst completed PCB using eagle. All CAM files completed and zipped to ship for quote.

I need 20 boards. Files attached.

How do I begin?

  • Hi Anthony,

     

    Please see here, and contact them directly:

    Cheapest PCB makers, low volume

     

    However, you should double-check if you need to do anything with the RST pin or not, for the module you're using - it seems you've left it disconnected.

    I've not used this module, so this is just a suggestion - maybe you've already confirmed.

    Also, it's bad practice to have all traces at 6mil, usually at least the power traces are thickened, and all traces look autorouted and component placement could also be better.

    For an initial prototype it may work enough to get by.

    Maybe turn C1, C10, C12 and C18 180°? And give T1 a quarter inch turn to the right?

    And C4, C13, C21

    C15 and D6 would benefit from a quarter turn right, maybe C14 too.

     

    C19 should be rotated right and moved to the end of IC3, where it can do

    its job of being a LOCAL decoupling capacitor, although what it's

    decoupling is unclear.

     

    Without the schematic it's very hard to say how many other mistakes

    there are. I suspect this board has not had sufficient care or attention

    paid in any aspect, given the sloppy approach to part placement and routing.

    Thank you for those suggestions. I will  manually make the changes.

    They are suggestions - a few things I would change if it was me doing the layout.

    I'm not opposed to auto routing by the way. For commercial designs, if auto mode delivers a board that is within specs, regulations and costs, there is nothing that can beat it.

    Many people will criticise the layout then, but economically and business wise, any minute spent to improve by a designer may not return its value.
