Single layer boards

labrat7

Has anyone done anything with single layer flexible cirtuit boards?

I am having trouble finding out how to define the cross section for only one layer. The layout cross section window says I can't delete either the TOP layer or the BOTTOM layer.

The board I am designing has pads on both sides of a single layer of conductive material.

Any help would be appreciated.

  • Are you trying to edit the soldermask directly? Or are you editing the padstack definition's soldermask pad (tools->padstack->modify design padstack)? If the soldermask is part of the padstack, you must edit it through this interface; you cannot directly edit it within the database as a shape. 

    Sorry; this is one of those problems where being able to see the actual database is usually helpful to guide someone in the right direction.
