Hey there,
Referring to around 1m40s in the attached Ben Vallack video, he refers to a transparent solder mask to show the traces on the pcb clearly. He’s using pcbway, which seems to be considerably more expensive than jlcpcb who I usually use for my prints.
Does anyone know if jlcpcb has this same capability, and if so what the settings are?
Depending on rules you set for track width, track distance, annular rings, etc… will put you in different classes of PCBs depending on specs that both list due to using different tools.
You might have to adjust rules in KiCAD or whatever you use to adapt it to PCBway.
It is all automated systems, so it won’t let you slip into the lower class if you have just one thing out of spec
Yeah, maybe. 10x the cost for a default print is a bit too much for me to bother fiddling to make it right for them. Think I’ll just stick with jlcpcb and make do without the transparent coat.
