LAYER IMAGES IN POSTSCRIPT FORMAT (version 4)
 substrate drawing (ps)
file names indicate layers and are of the form a4(layer name)  - the layer name is starts with either a t or b for top or bottom side print.
The next letter is the type of layer i = insulator; v = via fill; m = metal( conductor layer) the first print layer on each side is a via fill and this is numbered 0 - eg a4tv0.xxx is the top side via fill for through holes.
The layers are arranged in this list in the order that they would appear if the finished hybrid were sectioned and looked at end on.
The first column of numbers indicates the possible sequence of printing to avoid bowing of the substrate

16  a4tv3-4.ps ,   top side via fill for connection from metal 3 trace layer to metal 4 solder layer
15  a4ti3-4n.ps,   top side final insulator over top layer metal 3 traces and isolates them from metal 4 solder layer and chip substrates
14  a4tm3.ps ,     top side metal 3 ( needs to be wire bondable gold)

2    a4bv0.ps ,     bottom side via fill for through holes - essentially a mirror of top side via fill

Liverpool end-tap ABC/ABCD Forward Hybrids Version 1a

OLD Hybrid, proposed forward opto and power cable pin assignments. The pin assignments here are designed so that the interconnecting, two-layer, kapton cable can be made without crossovers or the need for plating through. This will allow this cable to be made from two layers of aluminium on kapton.

To understand use of layer names see pltabc1a.mac, this is a text format macro file used for producing plots from the PCAD database and contains all the layer names, their use in the database and the groupings of layers for plot production There are many layers in the database other than those used for plot production, containing mechanical info, layer buildup etc. Please understand that this database file has evolved over time and several different pcb and hybrid designs so it contains information on some layers that may not be up to date or relevant.

newcool.ps,

 original and proposed increased cooling contact area on forward hybrids.

 NOTE that the new increased area is close to the maximum possible using the original V1 hybrid profile. This has been achieved by removing all diagnostic lines and removing the bus and resistors required for distribution of the CAFE current setting line. If these are required then this new contact area will have to be reduced.
