Hi (thought Id start a new thread although kind of related to my last thread on space saving and programming SMD pics).
Im creating a PCB which I want to be as small as possible. I only have access to software which allows 2 layers only (freeware Diptrace). So I need to make use of the limited space I have. Instead of adding a mass of vias is it acceptable to run tracks under SMD resistors and caps. Im using case styles 0805 and the track widths are 0.3mm.
Thanks for looking.
