Single Layer PCB

PhG

Hi,

 

I'm new to Element14 and Eagle as well, so maybe my

question is somewhat too simple for you guys.

I noticed that Eagle always creates a 2 layer PCB.

However, I only require small single layer PCB's.

How do I set it up or how do I force Eagle to design

only single layers ?

 

Thanks and btw, congratz with this awesome site !

 

Best regards,

Philip

    Hi Philip,

     

    you are right the default setting in EAGLE is to create two layer boards. This is defined in the Design Rules, Layers tab. There is written in the Setup line  (1*16)   which allows to use two layers (1 and 16) and set Vias (the parenthesis around the term). If you want to define/use only one layer (without vias) then write into the Setup line: 16

     

    Or simply leave it as it is and use only wires in layer 16, Bottom.

     

    Regards,

    Richard
