6-Layer PCBs
Six layers give you more routing channels and additional plane layers for demanding designs — high pin-count parts, multiple high-speed buses, and boards where four layers run out of room. The extra planes also improve power integrity and shielding.

Reach for six layers when you have several high-speed interfaces that each want a clean reference plane, when a dense BGA fanout needs more routing layers to escape, or when four layers force compromises on your stackup.
A common 6-layer stackup interleaves signal and plane layers so every high-speed signal has an adjacent reference — something you can't guarantee on four layers with heavy routing.
Specs and quoting
FR-4 six-layer builds with your choice of finish, mask, and tolerances, quoted instantly across quantities and lead times. Finer tolerances and ENIG are available for the fine-pitch parts that typically drive a design to six layers.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need 6 layers or will 4 do?
If four layers route cleanly with each fast signal referenced to a plane, stick with four. Move to six when routing density or the number of high-speed nets forces it. Quote both to compare.
What lead times are available on 6-layer boards?
Multilayer boards support quick-turn options; the exact turn choices and prices show in the configurator when you quote.
