Silkscreen

  •  All components are labeled in a logical manner
    1. Maybe get someone else to look at it and make sure that they can follow the placement if any names had to be placed in weird orientations, etc.
  •  Connectors are labeled
    1. With function on top side (power input, CAN, Thermistor, etc.)
    2. With pinout on bottom side (or top side if possible)
  •  MSXIV MSXV Logo is on the board
  •  Correct board Rev is listed
  •  Pin 1 labeled on all ICs
  •  Ensure bottom silkscreen is mirrored
  •  Optional parts (such as CAN termination) is labeled
  •  Ensure all polarized components are labelled
  •  Double-check all of silkscreen in 3D mode

...

  •  Ensure that all parts are in the BOM, and have Supplier part numbers - ideally manufacturer part numbers as well
  •  Ensure the no components are ordered on tape and reel
    1. This just increases cost for no reason (since we don't have a pick and place machine)
    2. Digikey part numbers that end in DKR usually have tape and reel - watch out for them!
  •  The BOM must be generated and all parts put on digikey to make sure everything is in stock

After Generating

...

  •  Make sure the STEP file is also generated, and in the correct location. Make sure whoever on Mech knows where the STEP file is so that enclosures, mounts can be designed for it.
    1. If having trouble opening the STEP file in Solidworks to verify that it is correct, see this thread: https://forum.solidworks.com/thread/223404
