Title: seeed studio does 4-layer PCBs! Post by: eldentyrell on March 18, 2013, 06:17:12 AM Hooray. These guys have made PCBs for untold numbers of fpga miners, including all of mine and at least some of rph's. Now they offer 4-layer boards:
http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/fusion-pcb-service-4-layers-p-1383.html?cPath=185 Seeed has unbeatable capabilities and pricing for small runs of PCBs. If you only want 10 of something they're hard to beat (just don't expect any hand-holding). They fundamentally changed my approach to making PCBs; experimenting is so cheap that at one point I was sending out a board design every 3-4 days, with up to five designs "in the pipeline". When it only costs $10-$20 to try something instead of $100-$200 you start to look at development differently. Title: Re: seeed studio does 4-layer PCBs!

It's so great that multilayered PCB's starts to be very affordable for DIY'ers. Title: Re: seeed studio does 4-layer PCBs!

Just take a look at the drill accuracy...and the "punch thru" of the pads..... http://dangerousprototypes.com/wp-content/media/2013/03/Fusion-PCB-Service.jpg (http://dangerousprototypes.com/wp-content/media/2013/03/Fusion-PCB-Service.jpg) Title: Re: seeed studio does 4-layer PCBs! Post by: MrTeal on March 19, 2013, 04:16:13 AM $90 for 10 4"x4" 4 layer boards is pretty stellar. I generally use Advance Circuits as they do great work and I pretty much get a stencil with everything, but if you're making a 4 layer at home it's pretty tough to beat that price.

Anyone smarter than I ever looked into using them for Klondike 16 or 64 boards? Title: Re: seeed studio does 4-layer PCBs!

They aren't competitive with high volume. Title: Re: seeed studio does 4-layer PCBs! Post by: allten on May 29, 2013, 01:01:33 PM Wow,
Thanks for sharing. Definitely give it a try for the Avalon Quarter Stick prototype. Hopefully it will be ready in the next few days. |
