Ferrite Bead Search
- Preserved the board at 18 mm × 22 mm, 1 mm corner radius, 0.3 mm inset/keepout, and Standard 4 Layer stackup.
- Re-arranged all 25 components using both top and bottom layers, with connectors kept accessible near the board edges and passives moved near their related IC/power blocks where possible.
- Re-checked the board after placement: footprints are present and copper-overlap checks are clean.
- ✅ Board dimensions preserved: 18 mm × 22 mm.
- ✅ Corner radius and keepout preserved: 1 mm radius, 0.3 mm inset/keepout.
- ✅ Standard 4 Layer stackup maintained.
- ✅ Components distributed across top and bottom layers.
- ⚠️ Placement is improved, but the board remains extremely dense, so a few clearance/edge-access constraints could not be fully satisfied within the fixed outline.
- ❌ Remaining unrouted connections still need routing before final manufacturing checks can be clean.
Started implementing a plan
#Goal
- Route all remaining PCB connections for the Xenacious Turquoise Dejarik project while preserving the current 18 mm x 22 mm board size and Standard 4 Layer stackup. Ensure the existing top/bottom component placement is maintained, airwires are resolved, and all routing/DRC issues are verified.
#Implementation plan
1. Validate Board and Assembly
1. Confirm board outline is maintained at 18 mm x 22 mm.
2. Verify Standard 4 Layer stackup configuration.
3. Review top/bottom component placement to ensure correct positioning.
2. Route Power and Critical Signal Nets
1. Prioritize routing of power and ground nets using auto-route tools.
2. Apply manual adjustments if necessary to preserve design rules.
3. Complete Routing of Remaining Signals
1. Route all remaining unrouted nets using auto-routing.
2. Focus on resolving any persistent airwires while observing the 4-layer routing strategies.
4. Post-Routing Verification
1. Re-run DRC checks.
2. Verify that all airwires are resolved and no design rule violations exist.
3. Make targeted routing adjustments if necessary to meet all layout constraints.
#Success criteria
- Board outline remains at 18 mm x 22 mm and adheres to a Standard 4 Layer stackup.
- All components remain in the current top/bottom placements.
- No remaining unrouted airwires and all connections are properly routed.
- DRC passes with no violations after final checks.
