Adding Our Logo to Your PCB

Adding Our Logo to Your PCB

Placing a graphic on the silkscreen usually requires importing it into your EDA tool β€” a process that can be tricky, error-prone, and tool-specific.
To make this easier, we provide a simple placeholder method: just draw a rectangle, and our system will automatically replace it with our logo.

How to Place the Logo

Draw a rectangle placeholder on the desired silkscreen layer and make sure the rectangle follows these rules:

  • Composed of four individual lines (avoid using a rectangle tool if it causes recognition issues).
  • Line width: 3.3 mil (0.08382 mm).
  • Orientation: horizontal or vertical.
  • Aspect ratio: 4:1 (long side / short side).
  • Long side length: 30–60 mm.

Once detected, our system automatically replaces the placeholder with our logo and shows a Processing Note in our board viewer.

Why This Is Easier

  • No need to import external graphics into your EDA tool.
  • No risk of scaling errors or wrong layers.
  • Works consistently across different CAD tools.
  • Place as many placeholders as you want β€” each will be replaced with the logo.

Tips & Tricks

  • If your EDA tool’s rectangle function prevents detection, draw the lines manually.
  • Using this method will give you a discount during the checkout:
