Gerber Check please??
« on: Sun, 06 July 2025, 04:19:15 »
Would anyone be willing to check my gerber files before ordering?  I did get uploaded to OshPark without issues.  I didn't get any errors or warnings on the DRC, and one error on the ERC.  Which was for having a GND plane and nothing to drive it.  But considering this is getting a controller board soldered to it, I figured that was acceptable.  Assuming I will have to email the gerber files.  Feel free to message here or PM.

by that are you saying that the GND plane is not actually grounded? Controller boards all have GND pins that you should connect to the GND plane. Otherwise if you wish for a review keep in mind that reviewing gerber files is more complicated because a lot of information especially the schematic is lost, whereas reviewing your source files is more straightforward. Maybe consider joining the keyboard atelier server and ask for a review there if you haven't already.

Is it designed in KiCad? I'd recommend to use GitHub and KiCanvas to make the design available for review. I bet you'll get more feedback when the threshold for helping is lower.
