how big must the skillscreen be in? I have a board that has 32 as the smallest for some of my text.
I believe the minimum 8mil.
On my last board from SFE I used text as small as 35 mil high and 8 mil line width.
Working under one of these lights with a magnifying lens in the middle, the text was clearly readable for placing parts and soldering.
I am getting old and my eye sight isn’t what it used to be, so if I want the text to be clearly readable without aids, I try to keep it around 50 mil or larger.
I have been using 75 and 8 mill, its very readable.
I have my first board almost ready, but some of the footprints I have used have 6 mil lines in the silk screen. What will happen if I send it to sparkfun with these 6 mil lines? Will sparkfun hate me and reject the design? or maybe will the traces not be visible? or will the traces be converted to 8 mil?
