Vasile, > This sound interesting. Is not like any standardised 12 layer > stack I know (from 12A to 12L standard names). > Correct me if I understood wrong. Your stack proposal is: > > ------------ start sublamination 1 > 1-top > 2-signal > 3-PWR > 4-GND > 5-signal > 6-signal > ------------ end sublamination 1 > ------------ start sublamination 2 > 7-signal > 8-signal > 9-PWR > 10-GND > 11-signal > 12- bottom > ------------ end sublamination 2 Exactly. Planes 2,5,8 and 11 are easy to impendance control. 6 and 7 should be carefully used due to EMI issues with 5 and 8. Typical, we are using 6 or 7 as additional GND Plane and/or only for low impendance static signals. > What will be hapenning between layer 6 and layer 7 ?

Yes. But the PCB house do not have to build blind vias (with the extra costs), they only have to do standard vias, whcih became blind vias after putting the 2 stacks together. > I've guess is this one right ? > http://www.ilfa.de/servicecenter_en/ > Are you with ILFA ar an ILFA customer ? > I'll try with my next design, I'm curious about prices.
