Silkscreen Silkscreen has its own set of rules that the manufacturer needs to adhere to so that they can reliably manufacture your PCB at yield and at reasonable cost. We set the values below based on our manufacturer's capabilities and requirements (seen below). As usual for most PCBs we want to make sure there is no overlapping silkscreen text and none underneath our components, so we set those checks to On. Our fabrication constraints are set to our manufacturer capabilities, now that the fabrication of the PCB is likely to have reasonable first-pass success. Be sure to apply the constraints in the Design section and its subsequent worksheets and objects. 67 www.cadence.com OrCAD X Constraint Management Guide
