Pre-Fab Checklist

Schematics:

  1. Did you do a Design Rule Check with PROPER design rules imported?
  2. Does your project compile with no Error Messages?
  3. Do all power symbols have a consistent name?
  4. Are the transistors oriented correctly?
  5. Have you checked all of your symbols have the right pin designators / numbers (from datasheet)?



PCB:

  1. Have you considered how your PCB will be mounted?
    1. Mounting Holes / 3D print / Machined enclosure
  2. Did you do a Design Rule Check with PROPER design rules imported?
  3. Have you checked your stackup?
    1. Rick Hartley Conventions
  4. Have you followed proper signal integrity conventions?
  5. Are the transistors oriented correctly?
  6. Have you checked all of your component footprints to verify they match the pin designators / numbers (from datasheet)?
