Well, give me four layers and i route you that mess too ;-)
I mean that's not really good routing, is it? it's just running traces
until you hit another one and setting a via.
Also, the parts placement is not good either. It looks like the parts are
just put there more random than anything. Some busses seem to run right
across the board, much longer than they'd need to.
Now if we ignore these large scale issues (i'm not gonna make 4 layer
boards with 1287 pins tomorrow), and look at the detail work, it's still
crap. i mean, look at the very top very left pad, what is that?
practically whereever i look i see something i don't like.
This tells me i'm not just too stupid to get my autorouter working
properly, yours is just as crappy.
Could you try a smaller, single sided board?
thanks
