What is Multi-color Silkscreen

Multi-color Silkscreen,also known as Full-color Silkscreen PCBs or Full-color PCBs,multicolor PCBs, is an innovative printing technique used in the manufacturing of printed circuit boards. Traditionally, PCBs have a single-color silkscreen layer, often limited to white or black, for labeling component placements, logos, and other important information. However, Multi-color Silkscreen takes this to a whole new level by allowing the incorporation of multiple colors onto the PCB surface. This means that intricate designs, vibrant graphics, logos, and even images can now be accurately reproduced on the silkscreen layer of the PCB. It adds a visually captivating element to PCBs, making them more than just functional electronic devices but also works of art. With Multi-color Silkscreen, designers and engineers can unleash their creativity, enhance brand identity, and make their PCBs truly stand out in terms of aesthetics and visual appeal.

How to Design and Order Multi-color Silkscreen PCBs

Designing and ordering a Multi-color Silkscreen PCB on JLCPCB is very simple, that can be completed in a few simple steps:

1. Prepare the image: Choose or create the image you want to incorporate into your PCB design. Ensure it is in JPG or PNG format (we only support those 2 formats at the moment) and meets the size and resolution requirements for the PCB dimensions.
2. Import the image: Open EasyEDA, locate the silkscreen layer or the layer designated for component markings and labels. Import the JPG or PNG image onto this layer.
3. Adjust and position the image: Resize and position the imported image according to your desired placement on the PCB. Ensure it aligns correctly with the components and doesn't interfere with critical areas.
4. Verify the design: Review the overall design to confirm the accurate placement and fit of the image within the specified PCB dimensions. Make any necessary adjustments or modifications.
5. Submit the design to JLCPCB: Upload the generated manufacturing files, including the Multi-color Silkscreen layer, to JLCPCB's online ordering page. Follow the provided instructions for file submission and specify the Multi-color Silkscreen printing requirements.
6. Place the order: Once satisfied with the design and specifications, proceed to place the order with JLCPCB.
