PAD3U PadBoard-3U, Pad per Hole, 2 Sided PCB, Plated Holes, 3.94 x 6.30 in (100 x 160 mm)

the University of Manchester's PCB lab uses a photochemical process to produce prototype printed circuit boards on request by students and staff the designs submitted for production must adhere to restrictions for the production process to be a success in this video we'll look at the production process and highlight the stages where your designs have direct impact the process requires you to create designs using an Altium template which are then transposed into Gerber files for efficiency multiple designs are combined onto a single production panel which when completed is split into individual boards it's more cost effective to process boards in this way but it might mean you have to wait for the panel to fill up before the process is started when the panel is full the design is split into separate files which are compatible with the Gerber image plotter top layer bottom layer top solde
