Line 1: Line 1:
-  - Run an ERC 
-  - Run a DRC 
-  - Check stop mask - do you want tenting? ​ 
-  - Sometimes its cheaper to have both sides masked the same so mirror any stop masks like 'heat sink' planes onto the other side 
-  - Check the layout with Gerbv or another gerber viewer ​ 
-    * are the bottom and top lined up? 
-    * Are the holes in the right place? 
-    * silkscreen looking good, nothing overlapping?​ 
-    * bottom/top components there? 
-  - (optional) Sometimes its cheaper to have fewer drills, so edit the drill file to keep the tool number low (sometimes your CAD program can do this too) 
-  - Do you need scoring? 
-  - Do you need panelizing? If so, scored or tab-route? 
-  - If you panelize, make sure to send your solderpaste layer for them to tile at the same time 
-  - Do you need lead free? 
-  - Did you stick some fiducials in there? 
-  - What color mask and silk? For me, blue and white. 
-  - What finish? I like Gold Immersion 
-  - For panelization,​ 3mm holes in the corners will work best with an STP-350 printer
