LitePlacer.com forums

Is it possible to have the LitePlacer populate a board that doesn't have IPC-7351 alignment fiducials? For example, could screw holes be used instead?

Yes

I often use vias - just have to add their location to the PnP file. Works great.

Mounting holes work too, but you need to make sure the shadows don't mess with the camera algorithms.

Thanks!
