Silkscreen markings
1. mikroBUS
™
logo positioned above the socket
2. Pin names corresponding to the mikroBUS
™
standard
3. Pin names corresponding to the routing of the mainboard
4. A line that encloses the socket on all sides except the top, as shown above
5. Socket number, necessary only when multiple sockets are on the same board.
6. A diagonal notch below the right-hand side pinout (serves as a guideline for
add-on board insertion)
The full mikroBUS
™
silkscreen
markings also include the print on
the backside of the board. While the
front of the board often contains
a lot of components making it
dicult to retain the full markings,
the backside rarely has such
constraints. Therefore, even when
deviating from the full silkscreen
markings (see next page),
designers are required to retain the
markings on the backside.

To preserve the integrity of the mikroBUS
™
standard, it’s important to always include the mikroBUS
™
logo and the default mikroBUS
™
pin names on the silkscreen markings. It is preferable to retain
the full mikroBUS
™
silkscreen markings, but a few alternatives are also permitted.
