Questions about Mechanical layer on Lecture 6_ Switching Power Supply Design Course

[flyforward]

I have a question about the mechanical layer set up. In the lecture 6, one mechanical layer was set to the board outline. What does the other mechanical layer do (mechanical layer 1), which is enabled.

Thanks

Hello flyforward. You can use the mechanical layers for anything you want (and you can use any numbers you like). Normally, we use the layers for Manufacturing Notes, Board Outline, Mechanical layer, Assembly Top & Bottom layers, License, ..... If you like to see, you can download our OpenRex project and have a look: http://www.imx6rex.com/open-rex/
