Total Courtyard area info

[gschelotto]

A few years ago, I tried to do something similar with the aim of estimating the available PCB area for a given design.

Plugins to get Statistics of the PCB

In my designs I use a similar statistics script with some details that I find interesting. For example the amount of solder paste that I may need for large manufacturing series or even the component density per layer (TOP / BOTTOM). This last information can be very useful when we have some components in the design and we do not know if they will fit within the area determined by the PCB. The problem is that due to lack of time I have not finished calculating the ‘real’ area, which is not trivia…
