oh and more importantly they added support for filled and capped via in pad, this has been around for a couple weeks but that makes BGA heavy boards much more interesting. It's free with 6L+ and 16$ for 4L.

a bit odd that they don't support at least micro vias. I can't imagine of too many applications where 20 layers is useful without that.
PTH vias are always the biggest constrained for routing high density boards.

JLCPCB has launched a ton of new options!
Up to 20 layers now.
8 layer for 90$ with 6-7 production time is really good!

huh, turns out the shield on the CM4 WiFi module can rust?

Final stage of design review. Sitting there and just starring at this panel.

A story in 2 acts

though why the f does GCC not complain about a function that never returns?

ok fixed it <.<Called free() on a static array and for some reason not returning from a bool function also causes very bad things to happen.

(as in how the code does it, bootprot it off so in theory that can totally happen)

...and you have no idea how

tfw when your code wipes the bootloader...

And we are funded!Thank you all so much for the love and support for this project! ♥️

@ekaitz_zarraga yes, works great for small board and should work well for localized rework on larger boards.https://mastodon.social/@timonsku/106105973433919487

yoink all the parts

smol reflow!so cute yet so powerful
