What is the name of layer 17 in Eagle?

Standard layers

What is Eagle TStop?

The TStop layer is for solder mask, the thin coating that prevents copper on the board from being exposed except for the areas where desired. The TStop layer leaves apertures slightly larger than the pads so that the copper is still exposed in case of misalignment when producing the PCB.

Which is an example of a four-layer stack?

Listed below you’ll find layer stack examples to help guide your planning process for four, six, and eight-layer boards. An example four-layer stack. ( Image source) In this stack, we have high speed signals placed on the top layer with an efficient return path on Layer 2 (Ground Plane).

How are the layers organized in Autodesk Eagle?

If you’re planning to design a multilayer PCB then how your top/bottom and middle layers are organized will be slightly different than you’d expect. For example, creating a 4 layer board won’t just use layers 1, 2, 3, and 4. Rather, EAGLE will use Layer 1 (top), 2, 15, and 16 (bottom) to bring it all together.

How to design the 4 layer PCB stack up?

In the DESIGN-LAYER STACK MANAGER, there is a schematic diagram of the current stack structure on the left. Click the upper layer where you want to add a new layer, such as TOP, and then click ADD LAYER (positive film) or ADD PLANE (negative film) on the right to complete the addition of the new layer.

Where are the high speed signals in a four layer stack?

An example four-layer stack. ( Image source) In this stack, we have high speed signals placed on the top layer with an efficient return path on Layer 2 (Ground Plane). The high speed signals on the bottom layer are referencing the power planes on Layer 3, and this will require placing stitching capacitors between the power plane and ground plane.
