Single side, ground plane and tracks

Avatar Posted by amaury.dailliez at

    Hi everyone,

    Is here any way to design a circuit and a ground plane one a single layer board ?
    I was partially able to do it with 2sig2planes building technology but when printing design, only tracks and pins are printed.

    any idea ?
    Cheers

      Hi,
      You can add a copper pour area and attack it to GND in a single layer board.

      hope this help!

      All through-hole components need clearance around the pins not connected to ground, and thermal breaks at grounded pins. Auto-routing, except ground connections, must be suppressed on the ground layer.
      Any way to automate this on Design Spark PCB?
