[PCB_FORUM] Re: How to create a part with SMD pads on both sides

Create a surface mount pad; place pads 1-n1 on topside; mirror the pads,
and place n2-nx on the backside.

For a 32 pin edge connector, you'd have pads 1-16 on top; and 17-32 on the
farside. Or if it's alpha: pins A1-A16 on top; B1-B16 on bottom. Depends
on what the schematic says.

These are NOT the same pads top&bottom, so don't be confused by that. Each
individual pad will have it's own pin number.

Good day.
