A blog post about how we got beautiful full-colour art UV-inkjet printed on PCBs for a crazy project. It describes pitfalls and how to get it right!

Cautionary notes on PCB artwork from a PCB assembly expert:<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;zentroidpickandplace.com&#x2F;Pcb&#x2F;Artwork.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;zentroidpickandplace.com&#x2F;Pcb&#x2F;Artwork.html</a>

I&#x27;d like to see a dev board (Arduino, RPi, micro:bit) with V+ lines all silkscreened in red, ground in black, and serial in blue &amp; green. It would make teaching much easier.<p>It wouldn&#x27;t even be too hard to design, I just never saw it before.

How does it differ from: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.littlebird.com.au&#x2F;blogs&#x2F;news&#x2F;colourful-printed-circuit-boards" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.littlebird.com.au&#x2F;blogs&#x2F;news&#x2F;colourful-printed-c...</a>. ?

love the workaround of using soldermask for white. do you have any ideas for how you might mitigate red fade on future designs?

I don’t want to diminish your drive and accomplishment, but I can’t help but see the connection between this, and the microplastic world we live in. Creating disposable objects, and then covering them in plastic, seems like a net-loss for the planet.
